The defendant is a business owner in central Massachusetts. In November of 2019 she was stopped for operating a motor vehicle that was unregistered and uninsured. The status of the vehicle required it to be towed. During an inventory search the police found methamphetamine, a class B drug in the center console. The operator was arrested and charged with operating uninsured G.L. c. 90 section 34J, operating a motor vehicle with a suspended registration under G.L. c. 90 section 23 and possession of a class B drug in violation of G.L. c. 94C section 34.

The prosecutor and the judge agreed to place the defendant in a diversion program under G.L. c. 276A for the drug possession crime. A successful completion of this program will result in a dismissal.
