Michigan man picked girlfriend up from jail with heroin

A 26-year-old man was found with heroin in his possession while he waited for his girlfriend to be released from jail, police said.

Jeffery Samuel Picklesimer was arrested on charges of delivery/manufacture of narcotics less than 50 grams.

A deputy spotted a 2003 Buick with all windows rolled down in the east parking lot of the Livingston County Jail at about 11.40pm on October 2, according to reports.

Picklesimer was reportedly found ‘passed out’ in the fully-reclined driver’s seat of the vehicle.

The deputy shined his flashlight into the car but there was no response until he activated the flashlight’s strobe function. 

‘He appeared to be sweating, despite (temperatures) below 60 degrees,’ Livingston County Sheriff Mike Murphy told the Detroit Free Press.

Picklesimer’s vehicle was searched and officials found several empty ‘bindles’ of heroin in the car and five full bindles in the man’s wallet

Picklesimer told the deputy he was ‘just sleeping in the lot waiting to pick up his girlfriend, who was going to be released from jail’, Murphy said.

The vehicle was searched and officials found several empty ‘bindles’ of heroin in the car and five full bindles in the man’s wallet, according to Murphy.

A bindle is a small packet made from folded paper used to hold powdered drugs.

Picklesimer is being held at Livingston County Jail on a $100,000 bond. 

He is scheduled to appear in court on October 17.
