A sheriff's deputy was preparing to testify when he saw someone in the audience on Wednesday, May 24 around 1:30 p.m., the sheriff's department said.
Not because of her bright orange hair, but because she was showing signs of being under the influence of narcotics, the agency said. Interested in what this woman’s story was, the deputy went over the woman.
The woman said she was waiting to be a witness in a 10 a.m. case. Considering she did not have a DeLorean or a Tardis, it was safe to assume she missed it, as the afternoon docket was well underway.
The deputy attempted to find the man he observed with the female suspect when she first arrived at the Courthouse. He wouldn’t have to wait long until the male came wandering over towards them.
The deputy was unsurprised to see the man showing signs of being under the influence as well. Further investigation revealed suspected controlled substances in plain view within the vehicle they arrived in. There was even a double-bladed tomahawk covering up suspected controlled substances.
A search of both suspects revealed the female had even more drugs within her purse.
Many come to court to plead their drug charges down; however, these two left with additional charges of possession of controlled substances. Both were transported to Rappahannock Regional Jail where the male was held without bond, while the female was held on an unsecured bond.
