Warren County prosecutors have issued charges against a Washington state man related to more than 20 pounds of packaged marijuana located in his vehicle during a June traffic stop.
Jesse M. White, 42, of Vancouver, Wash., was charged Aug. 31 with delivery of a controlled substance and felony drug possession.
Officers with the Missouri State Highway Patrol pulled over White’s vehicle for a traffic violation June 3 on Interstate 70, west of Highway 47. According to a highway patrol report, White was overly nervous and an “overwhelming” odor of marijuana was coming from inside the vehicle.
White reportedly produced a Washington cannabis card to explain to the smell and allegedly stated he had less than a gram of marijuana in the vehicle. When the officer said he could tell there was more than that in the vehicle, White allegedly admitted to having more than 20 pounds.
Officers searched the vehicle and found a total of 26 pounds of vacuum-sealed bags containing marijuana. Officers also located additional drugs labeled “xanax.”
White allegedly provided inconsistent statements about who he was bringing the marijuana to, and said he was getting paid $1,000 per pound for the delivery, according to the highway patrol.
