Troopers responding to McKenzie's Stillwater home on June 21 found plastic bags taped over the windows and smelled raw marijuana, the NJ Herald, citing police records, reports.
A warranted search of the home reportedly turned up the plants, along with the two pellet guns and ammo.
McKenzie was being held in the Sussex County Jail pending a detention hearing Wednesday on charges of operating a drug production facility and being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm.
