A driver who allegedly possessed methamphetamine initially denied it was hers during a traffic stop Tuesday morning, the Bedford County Sheriff’s Office said.
Shelbyville Officer Brock Horner said he noticed the meth while his K9 was sniffing the vehicle of Roxanne Chapa Reynolds-Jones, 46, of Virgil Crowell Road.
Sgt. Clyde Boyce of the Bedford County Sheriff’s Office stopped Reynolds-Jones late Tuesday morning on South Cannon Boulevard for not having a license plate on her vehicle.
The meth was contained in a wallet Reynolds-Jones denied was hers. A review of officer body camera footage by Boyce showed Reynolds holding the wallet and looking inside for her driver’s license, his report said. She was charged with possession of a schedule II drug and posted $2,500 bond.
