Marijuana Bust In Casa Grande

On August 28th, 2008, the Pinal County Narcotics Task Force (PCNTF) executed a search warrant at 15759 W. Ashmoore in Casa Grande. The search warrant was a result of information obtained from Pinal County Patrol Deputies indicating that the residents were growing marijuana at that location.

After further investigation by members of PCNTF, a marijuana grow was located at that residence, and a search warrant served. The search warrant resulted in the seizure of a large marijuana plant, which is estimated to have yielded approx. 1 to 2 lbs of marijuana. There was also paraphernalia and a small amount of usable marijuana located at the house. Three suspects were taken into custody, and booked into the Pinal County Jail, after admitting involvement in the growing of the marijuana.

Timothy Knott 24 yoa, Harley Rodrick 20 yoa, Jeffrey Couse 18 yoa, were all arrested for possession of marijuana, producing marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.
