California Man Arrested for Possession of Over 200 Pounds of Marijuana – Dagsboro

Dagsboro – The Dagsboro Police Department with the assistance of the Delaware State Police have charged 57 year old, Charles Mulvihill of Ukiah, California with multiple drug related offenses as a result of a traffic stop in Dagsboro, on Sunday afternoon.
On Sunday, April 14, 2019 at approximately 1:36 p.m., an officer from the Dagsboro Police Department conducted a traffic stop on a tan Ford F-250 pick-up truck with California tags on DuPont Blvd., in the limits of Dagsboro, after it was determined that the operator was driving with a suspended California drivers license. The officer made contact with Mulvihill, the driver and sole occupant of the vehicle, who confirmed that his license was not valid and that he had no proof insurance for the vehicle. It was also determined that the vehicle was supposed to be equipped with an ignition interlock device, which it was not.
A subsequent search of the passenger compartment of the vehicle produced a prescription bottle containing oxycodone pills which were not prescribed to Mulvihill along with an electronic money counter, several ledgers and $1000.00 cash, which was concealed under the dashboard. A search of the bed of the truck produced six large duffel bags, concealed under a tarp, which Mulvihill advised contained marijuana. Further inspection confirmed that within the duffel bags were 98 vacuum sealed bags which contained various quantities of marijuana, with a total weight of approximately 212.09 pounds.
Mulvihill was taken in to custody without incident, and then he and the vehicle, were both transported to Troop 4, at which time the Delaware State Police Sussex Drug Unit assisted with the investigation. During a more thorough search of the vehicle, detectives discovered a large military style ammunition box, which had been welded to the undercarriage of the truck. The box proved to contain $276,570.00 in cash which was packaged in multiple plastic bags.
Mulvihill was charged with the following, before being committed to the Sussex Correctional Institution in lieu of $81,701.00 secured bail.
  • Possession of a Controlled Substance in a Tier 5 Quantity
  • Possession with Intent to Deliver a Controlled Substance
  • Possession of a Controlled Substance without a Prescription
  • Possession of Drug Paraphernalia
  • Driving without a Valid License
  • No Proof of Insurance
  • Driving without an Interlock Device
