State Trooper Nabs Large Amount
of Drugs on Traffic Stop
(Dec. 6) Doing it the old fashioned way, just the way that
Maryland State Police Superintendent Col. Tim Hutchins said it would work for police
officers in order to catch terrorists still works on drug dealers too. Early on
Monday morning, Maryland State Police Trooper Trossbach made a traffic stop and ended up
with a large quantity of hard drugs, perhaps cocaine or heroin, but not marijuana.
The boys had a car full of crack cocaine...how many white crackheads at local bars will
now have to smoke dope due to their favorite drug dealers being sidelined in jail with
their complete array of crack cocaine being turned over to police custody?
Arrested by Trooper Trossbach were Thomas Lionel Wills, 27, of Radford Lane in Lexington
Park and Jarvis Joseph Carter, 25, of Guenther Drive in Great Mills. The trooper
pulled the crack dealing bozos over on Rt. 5 near St. Mary's College, for doing 67 in 30
mph speed zone and noticed in plain view several rocks of crack. They may have been
smoking too much of that stuff and got sloppy. In any event, the trooper placed them
both under arrest and a search incident to arrest, according to Lt. Brian Cedar, commander
of the Leonardtown Barracks of the Maryland State Police, revealed a large quantify of
crack cocaine, worth thousands of dollars. Lt. Cedar places the value for the
196 grams of crack at more than $11,000. Since the crack was southbound at 2 am, the
drugs were likely a delivery for the coming week.
