Not Wearing A Seat Belt Lands A Man In The Brazos County Jail On Drug Charges

A College Station police officer sees a driver not wearing their seat belt and sees on the vehicle’s instrument panel, a blinking red seat belt light. That leads to a traffic stop just after four in the morning last Friday (December 20th). The CSPD arrest report also says when the officer began speaking with the driver, the officer smelled marijuana. That led to a search of the driver and his vehicle. Cash was found in the driver’s pocket and the center console of the vehicle that totaled $1,995 dollars. Inside the vehicle and in the trunk were multiple gallon sized bags that contained a combined total of 68 grams (2.4 ounces) of marijuana. The driver, 23 year old Jerrod Stewart of Huntsville, was arrested for possessing marijuana in a drug free zone. As of December 25th, Stewart remains jailed in lieu of a $10,000 dollar bond. Online jail records also say Stewart was also arrested on a warrant for failing to pay fines and fees totaling $1,212 dollars from a prior conviction for attempted possession of marijuana.

Texas 4-H Foundation Receives Its Largest Gift

A foundation from suburban Cincinnati Ohio has given the largest gift received by the Texas 4-H Foundation. A news release from the 4-H foundation says the $700,000 dollars will be spent to keep up with the Texas 4-H program and membership. The money will go towards what the news release says is “transformative programs in leadership and citizenship, natural resources, agriculture and livestock, family and community health, and STEM.” News release from the Texas 4-H Foundation: The Texas 4-H Foundation received a transformative $700,000 grant from the Adam R. Scripps Foundation, marking a significant milestone in their shared mission of empowering Texas youth. The Adam R. Scripps Foundation has a longstanding legacy of championing initiatives that drive education, health and community development. This generous contribution reflects a deep commitment by the foundation toward fostering leadership, service and life skills to prepare the next generation of youth for success. “This grant represents a powerful investment in the future of Texas youth,” said David White, president and CEO of the Texas 4-H Foundation. “With the support of the Adam R. Scripps Foundation, we’ll be able to expand access to our programs and provide more young people with the resources and opportunities they need to thrive as leaders in their communities.” White said the Texas 4-H Foundation applied for this grant because it felt the funds were needed to keep up with the growing Texas 4-H program and membership. “Our mission aligns very closely with the mission of the Adam R. Scripps Foundation,” he said. “They believe in what we are doing and want to help us continue to grow leaders and provide opportunities for 4-H members to gain life skills. We feel very fortunate to have such a generous donor with similar values and goals collaborating with us and supporting the works of the Texas 4-H Foundation.” Rick Avery, Ph.D., director of the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, which oversees the administration of the Texas 4-H program, said this funding is a tremendous start on a new and exciting chapter for the program as it continues to inspire, educate and empower youth across the state. “We are deeply grateful to the Adam F. Scripps Foundation for their generous support of Texas 4-H,” Avery said. “As the largest youth development program in Texas and the largest 4-H program in America, this funding will significantly enhance our ability to empower youth through transformative programs in leadership and citizenship, natural resources, agriculture and livestock, family and community health, and STEM.” This grant will directly enhance Texas 4-H efforts by expanding program reach, enriching curriculum development, and providing vital resources to support youth statewide. Grant funds will be utilized across the state and will be administered by the Texas 4-H Foundation in collaboration with Montza Williams, Ed.D., Texas 4-H state program leader. “We are thankful for this partnership and the trust the Adam R. Scripps Foundation has placed in us,” Williams said. “This grant not only strengthens our programs but also affirms the life-changing work being done every day by our faculty, volunteers and youth members.”
