The deputy suspected the trash was meth related according to a news release issued by the Sheriff's office. Deputies called SCAN (St. Joseph County Area Narcotics) investigators who went through the trash and found items which led them to believe the resident had been using and manufacturing methamphetamines. A search warrant request was then issued, and upon execution police discovered critical evidence.
The resident who was suspected of meth use and manufacturing was not at home at the time investigators discovered the items, but did return while authorities were still at the scene. The suspect was then taken into custody and incarcerated at the St. Joseph County Jail.
The press release issued by the Sheriff's department indicates the suspect faces several charges including possession of meth, maintaining a drug house, possession of marijuana, and operating/maintaining a meth lab.
Michigan methamphetamine possession attorneys know that anyone who is convicted of possessing this Schedule 2 drug faces harsh consequences. When manufacturing or intending to distribute or deliver is also a factor, the penalties become even more serious. Drug crimes are taken very seriously in the state, and prosecuted vigorously.
