An Emporia woman accused of having stolen guns, a stolen vehicle and illegal drugs in her possession over a month ago will be back in court Monday.
Mariel Gwinn Ascencio, also known as Mariel Martin, was set for a preliminary hearing a month ago but that was continued. The hearing is at 2:30 pm in Lyon County District Court.
Ascencio has been charged with numerous criminal counts — including possession of stolen property; theft of a firearm; felon in possession of a firearm; heroin distribution; cocaine, marijuana, methamphetamine and paraphernalia possession and paraphernalia use — after being arrested at Emporia’s Budget Host inn, 1830 East Highway 50, in mid-December.
Ascencio and Wyatt Everly were both arrested in the case with Everly being charged with possession of stolen property; theft of a firearm; meth and paraphernalia possession; and paraphernalia use.
