Arkansas State Police Interstate Criminal Patrol Episode #3| K-9 "BEAU" Alerts on Drug Mules WEED!!!

"APA NEW PROCESS":***The suspect's upcoming court information is attached at the conclusion of the video. The Police Report is at the start of the video and also beneath this message.***
On Thursday, June 15, 2023, at 10:50 am, I observed a gray suburban speeding as it was traveling eastbound on I-40 near the 4 mile marker. It passed me as I sat stationary on the right shoulder, and passed numerous vehicles in the left lane as I caught up to it. As I got close to the vehicle, I was able to pace the vehicle at 78 mph, even after it had slowed down a bit, and observed the license plate to be expired in May. I stopped the vehicle near the 6 mile marker. I made contact with the occupants, and identified the driver as the husband of the owner, Narciso Germinal Serra. The owner was Jennifer Serra. The male passenger was identified as Jessie Reyes.
Both occupants were very nervous, and Serra immediately began to argue he wasn’t speeding because he had his cruise control on. I could see numerous cardboard boxes and trash bags in the rear cargo area, and I was fairly certain I could see a vacuum sealed marijuana bundle through the handle hole in one of the boxes, but I couldn’t swear that’s what it was. I had Serra exit. Reyes stated he thought they were going to Okmulgee, OK. When I told him they were passed that, he said he had no idea where they were going. Serra stated they were going to Montgomery, AL, to do some work, and Reyes was his helper. Cpl. Josh Elmore arrived to assist as I conducted NCIC checks. I asked for consent to search from Serra, and he refused. I had Reyes exit, and Cpl. Elmore ran K-9 Beau around the exterior of the vehicle.
Beau indicated the presence of drugs in theNARRATIVE202311339asp Page 3 of 3car. We then conducted a probable cause search of the vehicle. I located six large, Lowe’s boxes and two black, trash bags full of marijuana in the rear cargo area. I later located a loaded 9mm Taurus (serial #1GC09095) pistol in the outside, driver’s side pocket of the center console, right next to where Serra’s right leg had been as he was in the driver’s seat. A spare, loaded magazine and holster for the pistol were located inside the console. I arrested both men, and Cpl. Elmore transported Serra and TFC Guerra transported Reyes to the DTF office in Van Buren. DTF S/A XXXX XXXXXX brought Mulberry Chief of Police to drive the vehicle to the DTF office. S/A XXXXXXX then interviewed both subjects, and seized the marijuana, gun with both loaded magazines and holster, and suburban. There was a total of 231 pounds of marijuana, which had a street value of approximately $370,000.00.Both subjects were later placed on felony holds at Crawford County Detention

Fully packed and speeding. And in Arkansas..That is dumb.

[@guzman9011]

And expired tags

[@cml5150]

Exactly. If you run drugs you don’t run them directly through the State….skirt to Fayetteville and take your time working your way up to Missouri and over to I-55. That’s just what I read on the internet 🛜 anyway 🤷‍♂️🤣

[@JacobC479]

I’ve noticed most of these drug runners are stupid and don’t plan ahead at all. Don’t come up with a story before they go (especially when it’s two people,) drive a car rented in somebody else’s name that’s 3 days past return, saying they’re going somewhere that’s in a totally different direction, it’s ridiculous.

[@radbabs2000]

If you carrying illicit 'things' 1. Make sure your papers are all in order, up to date tags. 2. Don't speed 3. Wash your car, nothing says I'm carrying drugs like a dirty car. 4. Repeat Don't speed. 😂😂

Mrs. Claudia, how are things in Canada. We just had snow and I'm ready for Spring. Hope you are well!

[@Claudia-up6hr]

Canadians are used to winter and love to ski⛷, curl🥌, go sledding🛷, have snowball fights⚪, build snowmen☃, skate, ⛸, and of course play hockey 🏒on backyard rinks and frozen ponds. We even love winter camping🏕 with a skidoo. My son and grandsons love to ice fish 🎣. But not this week! We're dangerously cold 🥶and staying indoors under a blanket drinking anything hot🫖☕.

I’m always amazed how sloppy these traffickers are. I can never figure out if they’re just so used to not being caught of if they’re that stupid. If we’re going to do something that can land us in prison for DECADES, we would practice our story for HOURS, shit even DAYS! And for damn sure I wouldn’t be anywhere near the speed limit.

One thing the cops could do that I wish was legal; "It's all for you? Ok, then let's make a deal. If you can smoke it right here right now, you can go home. But you need to smoke it all. You may begin."

Another thing most weed smugglers dont realize is how distinctive a smell it emits. If you smoke it you probably dont realize that you will smell like it. Most people do not have a 100% airtight sealed container in their vehicles. If a human can tell, the K9 will confirm it. I hope K9 Beau did not go into low orbit from the fumes.

[@drshoe8744]

The odor comes from the Oil of the plant, the mistake most smugglers make is when packing they think vacuum sealing keeps the odor down, but they get the oil on their hands while loading the bags, then touch the outside of the bags when sealing them, just that tiny bit of oil is all the K9 needs to smell, and no, it doesn't effect them, not unless they smoke it.

[@jit100758]

That’s why I never mow my lawn. Too much weed, it gave me headaches from the smell of freshly cut weed.

[@skipnasty8057]

@@drshoe8744 and dogs have a hard time smoking, what with no thumbs and all

[@Jeremy_the_bot]

That's why you don't smuggle plant. And if you do, you have a closed off back seat. I have held up just fine on these type of bs traffic stops because I had a lot of edibles and concentrates. The cop was so confident I didn't have anything cause he's looking just for the low potency, highly pungent plant.

[@seanmcmurray5958]

The THC can't get you high at all until after it is exposed to a certain minimum level of heat, which changes the molecule and "activates" it. So obviously you need to smoke or bake it first.

[@JustReed]

Why do mule's/smugglers always do this to get caught, 'attract attention by speeding.' Of all things not to do when having drugs.

[@MrTruckerf]

I think a lot of them get taken down by undercover information. Speeds things up a lot.

[@Pennebaker1]

Unfortunately these busts only take about 1-5% of the drugs off the road a lot of smugglers don’t get pulled over

[@rightsideupvt]

Even 200 pounds of weed is illegal in some of the legal cannabis states.

[@GraveMemories]

The legal amount you can buy from a dispensary in Illinois at least is only an ounce. Max. You can't legally buy even a pound. For that weight you gotta go to a high level plug who may or may not have 10 felonies on their record 233 pounds means you're involved with either the cartels or the big boys out in Cali or the northwest

[@aodhhanswtor7252]

Their own car, no insurance, tags out of date. On top of this, no cash on them. So these guys were being used in the biggest sense of the word mule. Likely they provided a lot of information, were given cheap bonds, and told to get a ride back to California. As long as they stay our of Texas or Arkansas they'll be fine. Since they'll never show back up to court.

These Troopers sure do know how to sniff out the bad guys. The bad guys always seem to help in their own arrests by failing to use signals, speeding over the limit and the Troopers know what simple questions to ask to get nervous reactions, facial expressions and not well thought out lies to take it to the next step. Total pros. If you are up to no good, best if you skip going through Arkansas.

If a trooper pulls you over for speeding then says I'm not gonna give you a ticket for speeding he's gonna ask to search your car especially if he's been tipped off

Yup, not gonna give you a ticket because it was just an excuse to pull you over and search you car. No sense of a 100 dollar speeding ticket when you're gonna have a 10,000 dollar fine for trafficking.

Speeding is not probable cause to search a vehicle maybe profiling on their part is to them but it is also not legal ! What would have made it probable would have been is if the officer would have said he smells the odor of marijuana at which he never did ! Suspicion based on inconsistencies does not constitute probable because private matters fall under right to privacy protections and therefore should be ruled as irrelevant !
