Effingham Drug Bust

Wednesday, 22 February 2017

A traffic stop in Effingham leads to a major marijuana find.

The Effingham County sheriff's department says early this morning a deputy stopped Alyson Rodriguez, 40, heading eastbound on U.S. Route 40.

Officials say a sniff test was performed on the vehicle by one of their K-9's and found about 60 pounds of marijuana in the trunk, along with a small amount of cocaine in Rodriguez's purse.

Rodriguez remains in the Effingham County Jail on a 50-thousand dollar bond for cannabis trafficking.

Rodriguez returns to court February 27th.
