Teacher Arrested for Trafficking Pot

(Calhoun County, Alabama) A teacher at Saks Middle School, Susan Trammell, was arrested Thursday and charged with marijuana trafficking. Her husband, Robert Trammell, was also arrested on the same charge.

Authorities were tipped after seeing a noticeable number of marijuana plants outside the Trammell household.

Drug Task Force Commander Richard Smith said the officers saw the marijuana plants outside the Trammell's home on Bucks Drive off of Gilberts Ferry Road near Ohatchee during a helicopter flyover Tuesday.

Once they obtained a search warrant, agents raided the home and found a man inside who was taken into custody and identified as Trammell. When Trammell's wife did not show up for work at Saks Middle School Wednesday, school officials asked her to report to the board of education building Thursday, where she was arrested.

Apparently, the Trammell's had a prominent marijuana farm adjacent to their home. Not a good idea.

Experienced dealers in contraband usually remember the term "plausible deniability" and conduct their criminal activities away from their residences.
