Postmaster General testifies in Le'Shaughn Smith drugs trial
Today May 19, 2016 witnesses testified how they examined the package which was brought into the territory through the EZone Internet Shopping Delivery Service.
Supervisor of the EZone and Amerijet unit in Road Town Nessa Nicole Ellis-Cupid said that on February 24, 2015 she was at the unit conducting routine checks as part of her duties.
During her checks she saw a package which was consigned to Jada Hopkins. The package was said to be an RCA stereo player and found it to have signs of tampering.
Ellis-Cupid said she observed too that the stereo was lighter than usual for such an appliance and that it was not brand new.
She said she sought to conduct a closer examination of the package.
“There was a hanging wire from the CD compartment. I turned the stereo around and shone a light in the back of the player and I noticed there was something inside the player,” she said.
She said too that she immediately called the Postmaster General Pascha Stoutt who upon her arrival examined the package and called the police.
The court heard that when the police arrived they opened the package and there was a strong smell of marijuana.
Asked by Prosecutor Herbert Potter how it was she knew that it was marijuana she was smelling, Ellis-Cupid said she passed through training in contraband substances and she also smelled persons who smoked it around parts of Road Town.
In her testimony, Postmaster General Pascha Stoutt said the packages found in the stereo were photographed by herself and Ellis-Cupid and those photographs were labelled and handed over to the police on a CD.
Stoutt said too that the drugs were weighed and came up to some 1.4 kilos in total.
