Possession of 30 grams or less of cannabis (or five grams or less of cannabis resin) has been decriminalized in Trinidad and Tobago. Another search warrant was executed at Biggart’s home, ultimately revealing about 116 grams of cannabis, notes the police statement. Marcelle was arrested after a search warrant was executed at his Tobago home, where they reportedly discovered a white Styrofoam icebox. Beyond the cannabis, the TTPS alleges that officers also found a black plastic bag with eight rounds of ammunition and a tin of pepper spray.
