Miller Faces Drug Possession Charge

Anthony Douglas Miller is facing four charges, including the felony count of criminal possession of dangerous drugs, in district court.

He is also facing three misdemeanor charges for criminal possession of drug paraphernalia.

According to court documents, Miller was stopped by the Montana Highway Patrol on June 3 under suspicion of driving with a suspended license.

Once a traffic stop started, Miller explained to the officer that he was eligible to have his license reinstated if he paid the reinstatement fee. He couldn’t provide proof that he paid the reinstatement fee. Troopers observed Narcan in the vehicle’s glove box and a syringe in the center console. They also received information that Miller was seen earlier that day doing a hand-to-hand drug sale in Wolf Point.

After Miller was asked by officers to conduct a search of the vehicle, Miller eventually said no to the consent search. The trooper said he would be seizing the Navigator and apply for a search warrant.

While the tow company was securing the Navigator in the Roosevelt County Sheriff’s Office’s impound lot, an agent from the Federal Bureau of Investigation and others interviewed Miller.

Items found during the search included nine clear plastic syringes, one clear plastic pen tube, one small clear plastic bag with white crystalline substance in it, seven small clear plastic bags and one small brown glass container with white crystalline substance in it.

The brown glass container and clear plastic bag with a white crystalline substance tested presumptive positive for meth.

Bond was set for $25,000. The maximum penalty for the felony of criminal possession of dangerous drugs is a sentence not to exceed five years in the state prison, a fine of $5,000 or both.
