Clark County Traffic Stop Leads to Drug Bust

KAHOKA, Mo.- A traffic stop resulted in a drug bust in Clark County Thursday night. 

Court documents indicate that a Clark County Sheriff’s Deputy initiated a traffic stop just before 7:30 pm Thursday evening when the vehicle failed to signal before turning.  Upon approaching the vehicle, the deputy identified the driver as 49-year old Stacy Sapp of Luray.

Upon learning that Sapp is currently on probation and parole with the State of Missouri, the deputy asked for and received consent to search Sapp and his vehicle.  As a result of the search, the officer discovered a glass pipe with white residue and a small distribution baggie also with white powder residue inside a glasses case.  The search also uncovered another distribution baggie with white residue inside the vehicle.

Sapp was transported to the Clark County Jail where a urine sample analysis was completed as well as field testing on the pipe and baggies seized from the scene of the stop.  The urine sample tested positive for methamphetamine and amphetamine.  The field test on the paraphernalia came back positive for methamphetamine.

Sapp was arrested and charged with a Class D Felony of Possession of a Controlled Substance, as well as misdemeanor charges of Unlawful Possession of Drug Paraphernalia- Prior Offender and Failure to Signal When Turning.  Sapp is being lodged in the Clark County Jail on $10,000 cash-only bond.
