    On October 8 at 11:11 a.m., officers initiated a traffic stop in the area of Gallery Place. Upon approaching the car, officers detected a strong odor of marijuana. The driver and passenger exited the car at which time officers observed a handgun in the passenger’s waistband. The gun, a fully loaded 9mm with 11 rounds, was safely recovered. It was determined the passenger did not have a permit to carry the gun. Further, officers recovered 21 grams of suspected marijuana, a scale, and prescription narcotics. The passenger, D’Andre Bernard Curtis, 21, of Waldorf, was arrested and charged with illegally transporting a loaded firearm in a vehicle and illegally carrying a loaded firearm. On October 12, a judge released Curtis from the Charles County Detention Center on personal recognizance. The investigation is continuing and additional charges are pending.

    Isn’t the odor of marijuana no longer probable cause for a traffic stop or to search a vehicle

    Was it a legal stop? Why were they stopped? Go stop some white boys and leave our black men alone. This happens in Charles County by white racist cops all day everyday. Now with that said, my beautiful black men you know what time it is...you are smarter, it’s hard but please do better.
