Posted by Jake remmington on 9/19/10
During a traffic stop a spoon is found containing meth residue. Subject admits to arresting officers the he ingested the remainder of the drugs and is taken to hospital where a piece of coffee filter is recovered which tests positive for meth residue. He is later indicted on two seperate counts of possession and pleads guilty to both. One relating to the spoon ; one relating to the coffe filter recovered from his stomach. is this a violation of double jeopardy ?
