A Rockmart man out on bond in a drug case is back in the Polk County Jail facing 19 new charges, according to police.

Cecil Bishop, 38, of Atlanta Highway, Rockmart, has now been charged with unauthorized distribution of a controlled substance after an investigation led to new evidence, according to Rockmart Det. David Gowens.

Gowens said all indications are that Bishop acted alone and no other arrests are expected.

Bishop was first arrested Feb. 21 after he allegedly tried to fill a fake prescription, according to Gowens. He was charged with first-degree forgery and unauthorized distribution of a controlled substance.

He bonded out Feb. 23, but police continued with their investigation.

Bishop was arrested Thursday on the new charges.
