Plymouth Woman Charged With Selling Marijuana From Home
Police say they seized more than 66 grams of marijuana and a digital scale when they executed a search warrant at the woman's apartment.
A Plymouth woman has been charged with drug possession and sales after police say they found marijuana and a digital scale in her apartment.
Toni Frances Bauer, 32, is charged with two felonies: fifth-degree drug possession and fifth-degree drug sales, each of which carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
According to the criminal complaint, signed by Plymouth Police Officer Amy Goodwin, police executed a search warrant on Bauer’s apartment in the 9700 block of 37th Place North on Sept. 13 after they learned that narcotics were being sold from the apartment.
Officers found Bauer inside, and she told them that she lived in the apartment with her two young children and no other adults.
During a search of the apartment, police found three plastic bags of suspected marijuana in a container in the master bedroom’s closet, according to the complaint.
Also in the container were personal items that belonged to Bauer, including clothing. They found a digital scale on the bedroom dresser with marijuana residue in it, the complaint charges.
The suspected marijuana tested positive and weighed 66.01 grams, according to the complaint.
Bauer has been released from custody on a $3,000 bond. Her next court hearing was slated for Sept. 24 in Hennepin County District Court.

John- I had received a number of inquiries from people about what was happening there and because we were able to find the criminal complaint about it I thought it pertinent to provide that information for those who were wondering. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on Plymouth MN Patch!

I wish this young lady a speedy and complete exoneration.
Law enforcement needs to re-direct its focus on crime...to those that are REAL crimes.
I was in Federal Prison for 5 years for a marijuana offense. No, it was not for simple possession. I was arrested aboard a Lockheed PV2 in Marianna, Florida...charged and convicted for conspiracy to import and distribute 12,000 pounds of marijuana.
At the time, I really had no idea what I had gotten myself into...mine was an offense involving pot...the thought never occurred to me that I may actually spend years in prison for that 'indiscretion.'
As my years in prison rolled by, what I did see were armed bank robbers, coming and going...while I still sat there for marijuana. Most of the bank robbers only spent 17 to 24 months. But, I and my fellow 'drug offenders,'...we stayed for years.
I wrote about the escapades that led to my incarceration. I admit, I had a great time. No one was injured, no one was killed, firearms were not involved...there were no victims.
We were Americans...doing what Americans do best...living free.
Truly, it is time for this lunacy to end...it never should have begun.

I would be honored by your review.

I know I am sleeping much better now that this pot vendor is off the streets - LOL...
Now the tobacco companies can continue selling their healthy product legally while we all pay the price in Medicare bills for the results...

Its so refreshing to know those of u that think this was a waste of time don't even take into account that she was selling with two small children in the home. Wow, do morals even exist anymore?? First of all, I don't care what kind of drugs were being sold, we don't need this kind of trash in our neighborhoods. Second, to sell with children present is just low. Nice positive role model for ur children!!
