Man Finds Pot Hidden in Car Bought at Sheriff's Auction
August 6, 2005 - kvia.com
EL PASO, TX -- A vehicle purchased on Saturday by an El Paso man at an auction sponsored by the El Paso County Sheriff's Office came with an unexpected bonus - a hidden load of marijuana.
The contraband was found in the undercarriage of the 1997 Plymouth Voyager by a mechanic checking for a spare tire. Rafael Carrillo -- the new owner of the car -- was getting the tires replaced at a Lower Valley tire shop. Carrillo alerted sheriff's personnel after the mechanic informed him of the discovery.
The illegal stash was overlooked by sheriff's deputies when the car was impounded, sheriff's office spokesman Rick Glancey said. "The vehicle was pulled over in a traffic stop, and a canine alerted to about 350 pounds of marijuana inside a door panel," he said.
"It looks like we missed maybe 90 pounds of [contraband]," he said. "Obviously, there was human error because it was more marijuana that was found by Mr. Carrillo and his mere honesty."
"I was planning to take it to Juarez to get the air conditioning checked out -- because it's not working," Carrillo said.
"That was my next step after getting a tire change -- there's many things going through my mind right now if I or my wife were to take it to Juarez to get it checked out," he said, contemplating the legal problems that could have ensued if Mexican authorities had discovered the marijuana first.
