On January 11, 2025, at 7:15 p.m., Deputy Eric Powell stopped a Black Kia Soul for speeding on US 41 near County Road 925 South. Deputy Powell approached the driver, identified as 44-year-old Jason Senger of Boonville. During the interaction, Deputy Powell detected the odor of raw marijuana emanating from the vehicle.

He was charged with Operating a Vehicle While a Habitual Traffic Violator and Possession of Marijuana.
