On November 13, 2019, the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Special Investigations Unit, with assistance from the Cannabis Compliance Team, executed an arrest warrant and search warrant in Lompoc. The warrant was related to suspected narcotics sales as well as illegal and unlicensed cannabis transportation, processing and sales. The search warrant was served in the 400 block of Coronado Drive after the suspect, 51-year-old Kenneth H. Frederick of Lompoc, was arrested nearby during a car stop. Related to the car stop, 34-year-old John T. Hamilton of Lompoc, was also arrested.
During the search warrant, detectives located approximately one pound of methamphetamine, handgun ammunition, body armor, several pounds of dried and processed marijuana, packaging materials and items of evidence indicative of illegal and undocumented sales. Approximately $30,000 in cash was also seized from the residence.
Frederick and Hamilton were booked at the Santa Barbara County Jail. Frederick was booked on numerous drug related charges, as well as being a felon in possession of ammunition and body armor with a bail of $250,000. Hamilton was booked for being a felon in possession of pepper spray with a bail of $20,000.
Thanks a lot, local drug users. Nice company you keep and stick in our midst. Amazing how much discretionary money these people have for drugs, yet demand we use our tax dollars to provide all this extra care for them. Hope the “Cannabis Compliance Team is self-supporting. Good place for market incentives to be put to work.
Thanks for reminding me I need to mainline some weed later on Weirdo’s…
Pot, the gateway drug to more chemical highs and crutches… like METH.
@Coastwatch, I needed a good laugh this morning…thanks! L O L
COASTWATCH – again, you’re wrong. Alcohol is the true gateway drug. No one get’s stoned as says, “hey lets get some coke!” Drunk people ALWAYS pursue something stupid, it’s the nature of the intoxicant. Stop believing 1950’s propaganda.
In the 1950s if you smoked marijuana you would go straight to heroin. Word to us from the “wise”.
Aren’t they a pair? Haven’t we seen this WMA dude’s mug shot before on Edhat? He looks familiar.
Now you go straight to meth after letting pot ruin your teenage brain -and the arms of the UCSB narcon revival factory.
ignorance is the gateway to marijuana negativity
