Pernod Samuel and Shonette Samuel, a married couple residing in Cashew Hill, are awaiting their committal hearing after being discovered in possession of 18 pounds of cannabis in May this year.
The couple awaits a magistrate’s decision on whether the evidence presented by the prosecution justifies proceeding to trial.
The investigation was initiated following credible information about the alleged unlawful cannabis possession and trafficking by the couple.
Law enforcement obtained a search warrant, leading to the discovery of cannabis plants hanging in their living room and stashed in bags.
The seized drugs, valued at $36,000, resulted in multiple charges, including possession, possession with intent to distribute, and drug trafficking.

Or here’s an idea, stop wasting millions of dollars on police tracking people down for a plant that most places have decriminalized and sink those resources into creating opportunities or social programmes for underserved and marginalized communities within Antigua. I have second hand embarrassment everytime I read an article, as if they’re stopping a meth lab or fentanyl distribution…it’s weed, the country could be making money off of it, but they would prefer to continue Regan’s war on drugs, which was just a war on black people.
