Prosecuting attorneys on Wednesday began laying out the case against a Texas man charged with drug distribution in Riley County District Court.

Jose Miguel Rivera, 33, of Balch Springs is charged with distribution of at least 1 kilogram of cocaine, between 100 grams and 1 kilogram of cocaine, between 100 grams and 1 kilogram of psilocybin — also known as mushrooms — and between 25 and 450 grams of marijuana. He is also charged with using a cell phone to commit, cause or facilitate the commission of distribution of controlled substances.

On Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning, assistant Riley County attorney John Griffin began presenting evidence and witnesses connected to Rivera’s charges.
