Press release from United States Attorney’s Office, Eastern District of Missouri:
U.S. District Judge Henry E. Autrey on Tuesday sentenced a convicted felon who was caught with six kilograms of marijuana and two guns to 10 years in prison.
On March 1, 2022, St. Louis County Police Department officers pulled over a 2008 Bentley that Jamie Jeffrey was driving. The officers saw a box in the
in thebackseat that contained bags of marijuana totaling about six kilograms. There were also two pistols in the car and $1,030 cash in Jeffrey’s pants pocket.Jeffrey later told police that the marijuana was what was left of 100 pounds that he obtained in trade in California for a 1969 Firebird in November of 2021. He said he then traded some of that marijuana for the guns. Jeffrey is a convicted felon and is barred from possessing firearms.
Jeffrey, 47, of Eureka, California, pleaded guilty in July to being a felon in possession of a firearm.
The St. Louis County Police Department investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Chris Goeke prosecuted the case.
This case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and gun violence, and to make our neighborhoods safer for everyone. On May 26, 2021, the Department launched a violent crime reduction strategy strengthening PSN based on these core principles: fostering trust and legitimacy in our communities, supporting community-based organizations that help prevent violence from occurring in the first place, setting focused and strategic enforcement priorities, and measuring the results.

Busted with 3 year old weed. ?♂️
He was arrested in March 2022. Assuming it was fresh when he traded for it, it was 3 or 4 month old weed
Clearly not enough coffee yet and not reading close enough. ?♂️ ?♂️ ?♂️
“Traded” that’s what they call it these days ok.
The story says he traded a ’69 firebird for the weed.
And he did
and in Kalifornia he would be let go with a citation.
avoid crossing state lines with bundles, especially the mid west
Life’s hard. It’s even harder when you’re stupid.
Driving a Bentley? How better to fly under the radar?
Couldn’t even keep the weed in the trunk?
Damn dude. At least shut the fuck up and don’t tell the cops everything you know.
I wonder who is driving the Bentley now…???
Mr. Jeffrey clearly falls into the category of:
“Haven’t caught a smart one yet.”
He didn’t rat on his riends back in Humboldt. I hope they appreciate that
Not yet anyway.
Typically a person rats to get a lower sentence. Doesn’t look like he took that route
He probably had California plates as well.
In other news, South American residents caught in humble county with several pounds of fentanyl cited and released For a misdemeanor on-site. I’m glad there are still a couple of states that take the law seriously and actually punish people for breaking them.
Wow, how refreshing to see that a loser like him actually gets prosecuted, sentenced and off the streets…if only this would happen in California too…
The officers saw a box
in thein the backseat
I don’t usually correct press releases but I did strike out one set of “in the.”
From the “Only From Humboldt Files”: Busted in a Bentley.
Busted in a Bentley sounds like a country western song.
I was busted in a Bently in Missouri
I don’t know why I wasn’t in a hurry.
It must have been my plates
In such a redneck damn state
It will be many years before I clear the slate.
Neehaw…
Professionals know the only vehicle to drive cross country with contraband is an S-Class Mercedes. It says upper-middle class without standing out or calling attention to itself. <whistles innocently>
Unless… it was modified as an S-Class Mercedes Grow Dozer or a Bentley Grow Dozer. Then it “might” call attention!
An E63 AMG made a record Cannon Ball Run across country. They modified the body to downplay the ride, making it look more like a Hyundai!
The word jackass comes to mind
Jeffrey’s got to stop acting like a tough guy if he wants to be a successful criminal. Rule one–blend in. Rule two–be nice. Rule three-develop a sense of humor.
Steve Martin iN MY BLUE HEAVEN shows us how. https://youtu.be/flx9YKnnl6Y?si=B7V62NwLcrs1zXDk
And my dog ate my homework.
If he went to federal prison for that it indicates to me that he is not a snitch. The feds will plead down cases like this if they can squeeze any information on another individual. Too bad dude, but the 8.5 years will go by pretty fast.
Do not think he is virtuous. He has been a thief for a long time, beaten people to steal their weed, many crimes w/ very little penalty here in Humboldt court system and no indication of reforming himself….He probably just had nobody to snitch on this time. Luckily the feds looked at his overall criminal record when sentencing him…This is not just a weed guy- this is a violent criminal
The Bentley Blues.
Bet he stole the weed. Looks like the type of guy you see w a Red Headed Black belt expose. Deff not the first run if he’s driving a Bentley. But we always found a Mazda w Chicago plates to be a better transport vehicle. Bentley. Wow. That’s some high class shit that stands out spectacularly. Bald w a neck tat is the new pony tail.
So Jamie Jeffrey was keeping a low profile in Missouri, as a drug mule in his Bently?
Weed that was stolen, serves him right! Karma will gethcha every time. Hope the worthless crook learns his lesson and becomes someone that contributes to society. He’s been a worthless drug dealer since high school. Never had a real job.
Dude was a harmless guy that had it made financially and he was only banned in California to not have guns.
