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. Mr. Senger voluntarily surrendered the marijuana, after which Deputy Powell returned to his vehicle to further investigate.

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

Additionally, Mr. Senger received citations for speeding and driving with an expired registration.
