I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF THERE WAS ANYTHING IN THE RESIDENCE AND SHE STATED THERE WAS MARIJUANA PARAPHERNALIA AND COCAINE RESIDUE IN THE KITCHEN AREA OF THE RESIDENCE. UPON A SEARCH OF THE RESIDENCE, WE LOCATED A METAL TIN ON THE KITCHEN COUNTER WITH A SMALL AMOUNT OF A GREEN LEAFY SUBSTANCE, WHICH TESTED POSITIVE FOR CANNABIS.
