TAMPA CRIMINAL BLOG: Hillsborough County Courthouse Spokesman Charged With Drug Possession Following Hit-And-Run
Calvin Green, the spokesman for the Hillsborough County Courthouse, has been charged with possession of a controlled substance after he admitted to owning a bag of marijuana and a pipe according to police reports published on the St. Petersburg Times website. Police spotted the pot and paraphernalia at Green’s home while investigating a hit-and-run.
The discovery of the drugs came when an officer was doing a follow up investigation on a traffic crash and saw one of the cars, believed to belong to the suspect, in the driveway of the 56-year-old Green. The officer tried to get someone to answer the door at the house but when nobody did, he began walking around the Tampa home where he spotted the suspect asleep inside. It was at this time the officer apparently spotted a bag of marijuana and pipe. Upon a search of his home, officers found 19 grams of marijuana inside.
