Two California women were charged with multiple drug offenses after a traffic stop on Interstate 75 (I-75) in Florida’s Hernando County, one of whom was said to have recently undergone a Brazilian butt lift (BBL).
According to the Hernando Sun, a Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) trooper noticed a white Toyota Sienna was following a semi-truck too closely on March 31 at about 9:30 a.m. The SUV changed lanes and started going faster than the 70 mph limit as he caught up to it.
When the trooper turned on his lights to signal a traffic stop, the Sienna eventually slowed down after the trooper passed directly behind it.
Passenger Toy Phaphon, 46, who was found lying on her stomach, was allegedly heading to Tampa from Atlanta for a follow-up appointment for a recent BBL surgery.
When asked about the smell, the driver, Jenny Khamphouvong, 39, said she had smoked marijuana while filling up the rental car at a gas station. She denied having more marijuana inside the vehicle.
However, she admitted to not having a medical marijuana card, which prompted the trooper to search the SUV as recreational marijuana is illegal in Florida.
