Detectives contacted 35-year old Benjamin Llernas of Lompoc who was on active probation.

During a search of the residence, detectives located 84.6 grams of methamphetamine packaged for sales. Detectives discovered the methamphetamine belonged to Llernas. Ultimately, Llernas was arrested for a violation of 11378 H&S, possession of methamphetamine for sales. Llernas was booked into the Lompoc City Jail and is being held without bail.
