Description
On October 30, 1968, a jury returned a verdict finding the defendant, David Williams, guilty of possession of marijuana contrary to sec. 161.275, Stats. The proceedings culminating in defendants conviction began on October 10, 1967, when Lt. Ray Lichtie of the La Crosse police department sought a warrant for the arrest of James Herbage, the defendants roommate, for violation of sec. 161.275. Upon Lichties complaint and after a hearing before Leonard F. Roraff, Judge of La Crosse County Court, an arrest warrant was issued. That evening, at approximately 8:30 p. m., the warrant for Herbage was executed at his apartment. Upon entry, police found Herbage, Sedley Huwald, and the defendant, Williams, in the bedroom. Herbage was sitting on the bed with a tinfoil package on his lap containing what appeared to be marijuana. It was later determined that the packet in fact contained marijuana. Herbage was arrested on the warrant. Huwald and the defendant were arrested on the basis of their proximity to Herbage and the tinfoil package on Herbages lap. A Patrick Boutch was in the kitchen of the two-room apartment at the time of the officers arrival and was also arrested. Immediately upon taking the arrested parties from the apartment, police began to search the apartment, finding additional quantities of suspected marijuana in a closet, under the kitchen sink, and in the kitchen stove.
