Casey D. McClelland, 25, of the 11300 block of Hunters Ridge, Vernon Township, charged with one count each of delivery of heroin and possession of heroin.
Corey J. Blood, 19, of the 200 block of South Second Street, Conneaut Lake, charged with three counts each of delivery of heroin and possession of heroin and one count of criminal conspiracy.
Duane A. Zirkle Jr., 20, of the 12900 block of Ryan Road, Conneaut Lake, charged with two counts each of delivery of heroin and possession of heroin and one count of criminal conspiracy.
Jacob T. Elliott, 20, of the 9100 block of Route 6, Conneaut Lake, charged with one count each of criminal conspiracy, delivery of heroin and possession of heroin.
Also charged as part of the case were Pittsburgh residents Darryl E. Bishop, 40, and Tashannia M. Clark, 32. Both were arraigned Thursday on charges of delivery of heroin, possession of heroin and criminal conspiracy, investigators said.
The arrests were the result of a 14-month grand jury investigation into heroin trafficking between Pittsburgh and northwestern Pennsylvania communities, including Conneaut Lake and Edinboro, state Attorney General Tom Corbett said Friday.
Bishop allegedly served as a Pittsburgh-area source for heroin and supplied it to McClelland, Blood, Zirkle and Elliott, according to the indictment.
Corbett said the defendants made trips to Pittsburgh, often returning to the Conneaut Lake area with 10-bag "bundles" or 50-bag "bricks" of heroin that they would then distribute.
Agents accused the group of transporting and distributing more than $300,000 worth of heroin in Crawford and Erie counties between 2005 and 2007.

i know casey, he isnt a bad guy. he went to college and studied art. He wanted to own his own studio one day. He never had any money, because it all went to school. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time. with the wrong people.
I have also known Casey for a number of years and anyone else that knows him thinks that this is insane. He has been clean for just short of a year and has turned his life around by working and going to school. His alleged charges stem from a supposed 2006 incident. I do not know why he is being harassed by the powers that be.
