The Chipley Police Department received information Wednesday of possible drug activity being conducted in a home that a methamphetamine lab had been dismantled in just eight days prior. Members of the Washington County Drug Task Force, which consist of the Chipley Police Department and Washington County Sheriff’s Office, responded to the suspected residence located at 844 8th Street, Chipley. Upon arriving task force members observed methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia sitting on a table just inside the front door. Investigators gained consent to search the residence. Investigators found that, Leonard Paul Pouncey, 33, of Chipley was in possession of several grams of methamphetamine, marijuana, and drug paraphernalia. Also located at the residence were several "Shake and Bake" bottles used in the production of methamphetamine. Although Pouncey was not present at the time the first Methamphetamine lab was discovered, investigators were able to link him to it during the investigation into the second lab. Pouncey was transported to the Washington County Jail where he was booked on charges following the completion of a week long investigation and a search of the residence.
This was a job well done by all Officers involved.
Leonard Paul Pouncey:
2 charges of Possession of Methamphetamine
2 charges of Production of Methamphetamine
2 charges of Possession of Marijuana
2 charges of Possession of Drug Paraphernalia
1 charge of Child Abuse
