Kansas high school psychologist caught with 14 pounds of pot, deputies say

Salina — A Kansas high school psychologist is in custody after more than 14 pounds of marijuana were found in the trunk of her car as she and her husband returned from Colorado, according to authorities.

The Wichita Eagle reported 46-year-old Shelly Moore and 44-year-old Frank Moore were arrested early Thursday after a Saline County deputy pulled the couple over on Interstate 135 just south of Salina.

The sheriff’s office said the deputy smelled the odor of pot and found the marijuana in the vehicle’s trunk.

Shelly Moore is a psychologist at Wichita Southeast High School. She and her husband were being held at the Saline County Jail on suspicion of drug possession and related charges.

The couple were scheduled to be arraigned Monday morning. It was unclear whether either had obtained an attorney.
