Habhab set preliminary hearings for both of them for July 13.

Few details on what led to the new charges were available Saturday. The Fort Dodge Police Department issued a statement saying the charges resulted from a weeks-long investigation into the activities of the Joneses prior to their May 21 arrests.

Because of the potential presence of hazardous materials there, Fort Dodge firefighters were also on the scene.

That day, Daniel Jones was charged with conspiracy to manufacture methamphetamine (more than 5 grams), possession with intent to deliver methamphetamine (less than 5 grams), possession with intent to deliver marijuana, failure to appear and violation of probation.
