A Mississippi woman, 23 year-old Amari Williams, was arrested Monday (August 26, 2024) and
booked into the Tangipahoa Parish Jail for Possession with the Intent to Distribute a Schedule I Controlled Dangerous Substance.
Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office (TPSO) Narcotics detectives were conducting proactive drug enforcement along I-55 in the Kentwood area. They observed a vehicle traveling slowly in the left lane, holding up traffic and showing evidence of distracted driving.
Williams, the driver and sole occupant of the vehicle, was pulled over in a traffic stop where detectives discovered more than 47 vacuum-sealed bags with 50 pounds of high-grade marijuana inside. The drugs are estimated to be worth $75,000.
