What began as a routine warrant service Friday, February 27th, ended with two Plymouth residents facing multiple drug-related charges after officers detected marijuana at their residence.
Plymouth Police Department officers arrived at 900 West Harrison Street, lot 216, attempting to locate Jason Housour, 52, who had an active local warrant. Upon arrival at the trailer, officers immediately detected a strong odor of marijuana emanating from the residence.
When Kimberly Housour, 51, answered the door, she informed officers that Jason was not present and denied the presence of any marijuana in the trailer. However, when police asked her to step outside, Jason Housour called out from inside the residence, revealing his presence, and emerged from the trailer.
Jason Housour was immediately placed into custody on the outstanding warrant and read his Miranda Rights. Following his arrest, he admitted to officers that marijuana was inside the trailer and offered to show them its location.
Both Kimberly and Jason Housour were arrested and transported to the Marshall County Jail on multiple charges.
Jason Housour was booked on his original warrant as well as possession of marijuana, possession of marijuana with a prior conviction with more than 30 grams (Level 6 felony), possession of paraphernalia, and maintaining a common nuisance.
Kimberly Housour was charged with possession of marijuana, possession of marijuana with a prior conviction with 30 grams or more (Level 6 felony), possession of paraphernalia, and maintaining a common nuisance (Level 6 felony).
Both individuals remained in custody at the Marshall County Jail pending further court proceedings.
Readers are reminded that charging information supported by an affidavit of probable cause is a mere allegation that a crime has been committed and that there is only probable cause to believe a crime has been committed. They are presumed innocent throughout the proceedings and are entitled to be represented by counsel and entitled to a trial by jury at which the State is obligated to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt before a judgment of guilt may be made.
