from www.nbc-2.com – A traffic stop in Charlotte County ended with a man and woman in jail. Deputies say both of them tried hiding the drugs in some unusual spots.
Officials we spoke to say it all started when they spotted 46-year-old Cheryl Goulding get into Steven Cooper’s car. They say Goulding had just left a known drug house.
Deputies say Cooper, 49, blew through a stop sign and that’s when they stopped and searched the vehicle.
They say that is where they found the first bag of cocaine.
Cooper was placed in the back of a patrol car. And Goulding, deputies say, stood close by with her belt unbuckled.
In a report from the sheriff’s office, deputies stated that they asked Goulding if there was anything in the front of her pants.
Goulding responded by pulling a glass crack pipe from her vagina, deputies reported.
But the drug charges didn’t stop there.
Deputies say Cooper also tried to hide two zip lock bags filled with marijuana and drug paraphernalia in the back seat of the patrol car. But he wasn’t successful.
Deputies we spoke to Thursday explained they search their patrol cars anytime someone gets in or out.
They say if they find something once the suspect gets out, it could lead to more charges.
And that’s just what deputies say Cooper did. Deputies took him to jail and just as he was getting out of the car, they found yet another bag of cocaine in the back seat.
In all, two bags of cocaine, a bag of marijuana and a glass crack pipe were found on Cooper and Goulding.
Deputies say no matter where you hide it – they’re going to find it.
