Christopher Chin, 23, Jason Morrison, 26, and Shaun Jackenheimer, 25, all of Largo, were each charged with one count of felony possession of cannabis and one count of possession of narcotic paraphernalia. Derek Swinski, 21, of Clearwater was visiting friends at the residence in the 600 block of Fourth Avenue NE when officers arrived and found him smoking marijuana, Slaughter said. Swinski was charged with one count of possession of cannabis. Officers served a search warrant on the home around 9:45 p.m. Thursday.
