Dealer convicted in Buckhalter case

Thirty-six-year-old Styles Beckles, of Clifton Heights, was convicted Friday on two counts of possession with intent to deliver marijuana. Authorities alleged that his customers included former Eagles running back Correll Buckhalter and Keita Crespina, a former player with both Temple and the Philadelphia Soul.

Delaware County prosecutors say they will seek at least four years when Beckles is sentenced June 2.

On the stand, Beckles denied selling marijuana to Buckhalter, despite testimony from a state trooper who said wiretap conversations and a ledger notation indicated that Buckhalter bought marijuana from the defendant.

Buckhalter, who signed with the Denver Broncos earlier this month, also denied buying drugs from Beckles and has not been charged with any crime.
