About 1,000 Pot Plants Found Wednesday PM Near Jay
July 24, 2008
The Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Department worked into the night Wednesday night to destroy about 1,000 marijuana plants found near Jay.
The plants were located in the Brownsdale community southwest of Jay near Bud Diamond Road.
It was not immediately known if this major drug find was related to the arrest of a Jay man earlier this week for the cultivation of about 85 marijuana plants. Tharon “Buckshot” Godwin, 66, was charged with possession of marijuana with intent to sell, manufacture or deliver, a third degree felony in connection with 85 pot plants located in a wooded area on Bud Diamond Road near Chumuckla Highway, very near Wednesday night’s find.
