Supplement your child's diet with vitamins from glove compartment which smelled to him as if it had marijuana in it. After discovering this, he said, he called Deputy Sheriff James Sisson to come to the scene with a search warrant for the car. Sisson testified that he had tested the residue in the pipe with a field test kit for marijuana and that it had tested positive. He said he also tested a few crumbs and a seed of some vegetable substance which was found on the floor board of the car, and, that this tested positive also. K. M. Sweeny, a criminologist with the Seattle Police Department, testified that the pipe had been brought to his laboratory, and, that he had tested it and found it positive for marijuana. Coffey, taking the stand in his own behalf testified that he knew the pipe was in the glove compartment of the vehicle, and, that he had used it to smoke marijuana two or three months previously, and, that as far as he was concerned, the pipe was empty. In his decision, Correa stated that the amount of marijuana found in the pipe was so small and not useable that it did not, in his opinion, qualify under the legal definition of possession. He said he had some doubt that the substance found on the floorboard was really marijuana.
