A Bartlesville couple who are accused of drug violations have a preliminary hearing scheduled for April 18th.  Arturo Mendoza and Jessica Raminrez are charged with aggravated trafficking in methamphetamine and acquire proceeds from a drug activity.  Last month, Bartlesville police conducted a traffic stop for a defective brake light at the intersection of DeBell Avenue and Tuxedo Blvd.

A court affidavit states that a K9 smelled an odor of drugs coming from inside the car.  The authorities found two-one gallon freezer bags.  Each bag weighed over 1,000 grams of meth.  The suspects had over $1,200 in cash and officers found over $600 inside the car.

Bond remains at $250,000 each.
