He’d previously pleaded guilty to possession of psilocybin for the purpose of trafficking and possession of a quantity of marijuana in excess of legal limits.

Maher also pleaded guilty Friday to a related charge of having an elevated blood-alcohol level within two hours of driving.

The charges all related to events in the early-morning hours of April 21, 2023, court heard.
