The man who was arrested for allegedly having the illegal substance Ketamine -- also known as “Special K” -- on him at the Jersey Shore party house in July is going to have his case turned over to a grand jury for review, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.
Jonathan Manfre, 32, was arrested on July 24 in possession of a "white powdery substance" and a source close to the investigation told Radaronline.com that the evidence will be presented to the grand jury in Ocean County, New Jersey.
According to the source the charge could possibly be a felony depending on if the grand jury finds there is enough evidence to charge Manfre with possession of the illegal substance.
Ketamine is a medically prescribed drug that is legally used as a horse tranquilizer.
The illegal use of "Special K" can cause "dream-like states and hallucinations," according to drugfree.org.
Manfre, nicknamed Jonny "The Unit," is a trainer and close friend of MTV cast member Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino.
He was released from jail on July 24 after posting a $1,000 bail at the Ocean County jail.
