Highlands Ranch med pot grower wants to plead guilty in federal court - The Denver Post A Highlands Ranch man busted by federal agents after growing medical marijuana in his home is expected to plead guilty to a drug charge, 9Wants to Know has learned. Drug Enforcement Administration agents raided the home where Chris Bartkowicz, 36, lived near C-470 and University Boulevard last month. Agents say they discovered 224 marijuana plants in various stages of development. Bartkowicz pleaded not guilty on March 5 to a federal charge of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute. That same day, Bartkowicz's attorney filed a notice of disposition telling a judge that the prosecution and defense have reached an agreement in the case and a change of plea proceeding is needed. "The prosecution and defense are waiting for a judge to set a change of plea hearing date, where (Bartkowicz) will be given an opportunity to plead guilty," U.S. Attorney spokesman Jeff Dorschner told 9Wants to Know.
