JACKSON, MS—The FBI Safe Streets Task Force arrested Tiffany Snodgrass, 47, of Dale, Texas Monday evening on charges of Possession with Intent to Distribute a Controlled Substance. Snodgrass was arrested without incident in Jackson County, Mississippi.

The Task Force seized approximately 12 pounds of Crystal Methamphetamine, 13.6 grams of Black Tar Heroin and a 9mm semi-automatic pistol. If convicted, Snodgrass faces a sentence of 10 years to life in a federal penitentiary and a fine of up to $10 million.

Snodgrass made her initial appearance on Tuesday before United States Magistrate John C. Gargiulo, United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi in Gulfport, Mississippi. Magistrate Judge Gargiulo ordered Snodgrass to be held without bond following her Preliminary and Detention hearing today.

Assisting with this investigation were the South Mississippi Metropolitan Enforcement Team (MET) in Pascagoula and the United States Border Patrol.
