Arkansas Congressman’s Son Arrested for Possession of Meth (Republican)
KNWA ^ | Jul 7, 2022 | Justin Trobaugh

U.S. Rep. Steve Womack’s (R-AR Dist. 3) son was arrested in Rogers on July 6 for possession of meth.

According to an affidavit, police were asked to assist with a probation home visit on E. Woodridge Lane in Rogers. When police arrived, they found James Womack, 34, in a downstairs bedroom of the home.

The affidavit report says Womack tried to sit on a zipper-style glasses case when police met with him. The case contained an orange cylinder shape container and suspected methamphetamine inside the container.

Inside the glasses case, police found multiple syringes, a small glass vile with suspected meth inside of it, a metal spoon, and another empty baggie with suspected meth residue, according to the affidavit.

Police removed the suspected meth from the orange container and tested it with a NARTEC field test kit. The test kit showed a positive result for meth, according to the affidavit.

Womack was arrested and told police he was not selling meth but using it. The affidavit says Womack had nine grams of meth in his possession.

Womack was transported to the Benton County Jail without incident.

Womack was charged with felony possession of controlled substance-methamphetamine and felony possession of drug paraphernalia.

A $20,000 bond was placed on Womack, according to the affidavit. His bail is set at $15,000.

Womack appeared in court on June 20.

Womack was previously sentenced in April 2019 to nine years in prison after pleading guilty to five felony charges for drugs and guns.

The sentencing involved one case from June 2018 which involved two counts of possession of drugs and drug paraphernalia and one from September 2018 which involved three counts of drugs, drug paraphernalia and firearm possession, according to court documents.

In May 2020, Womack was placed on the Arkansas Department of Correction’s (ADC) list of inmates being considered for early release in connection to COVID-19. Inmates considered for early release must not have committed crimes that were sexual and/or violent, according to ADC.

Maybe the son is just pro-choice on meth.

His body, his choice.

The way it was written I thought this was a teenager, not a 34 year old in his own home.

The congressman should kick his son to the curb and laugh it off publicly.

He'll probably get the book thrown at him, considering his dad is an (R).

Don't know why the face of Hunter Biden popped into my head as I read this story...

This sad.

What is even more sad is that this will get more coverage than Hunter Biden.

Hunter Biden has done it all and Videotaped it.

He also lied to the Court in the state in question, Arkansas.

$3.5 Million from A Russian official, and 150 banking transactions flagged for likely money laundering or trafficking.

Not his first time. Was released early due to covid. Meth is a demon, 1st time use makes you an addict. After that apart from a spiritual conversion there is not much hope or expectation for recovery.

President Trump called for the death penalty for drug dealers and human traffickers. Without a commitment to punish criminals for crimes that steal life itself from the victims (even if willingly in the case of drug abuse) a society cannot restore a moral compass to societal norms and behavior. Apart from an accepted moral standard there is only chaos left and anarchy rules.

There is much to pray about for this family and our country.

Your dad has to be VP and democrat for the justice system to ignore felonies.

Does he know Hunter Biden well? Maybe he can get in on Hunter’s immunity to prosecution and even get a stake in a Ukrainian or Chinese energy company. Experience with hookers is a plus too.

Steve Womack was quoted as saying that “James is the smartest man he knows”.

No Law is enforced on Hunter, Ashley, Brother James, or Joe.

When Married Swalwell was sleeping with a Chinese Spy guiding his campaign, and the FBi told him she was being monitored and her Spy status isn’t good for your Campaign - as opposed to getting FISAs and running a Get Swalwell Op.

Then the FBi refused to brief the Intelligence Committee on Fang-fang and her efforts and exposure by Swalwell who got briefings as a member of the Intel Committee.

Mark Warner (VA) used a Spy App to work with Oligarchs in Russia to set up the POTUS. He worked with Russia to set up the US sitting President, and told them the conversations and channels could never be revealed.

The kid is 37. If Joe never spoke to Hunter then we can be pretty sure the Congressman didn’t supply his son with crank. It is interesting to note that party affiliation is conveniently mentioned in the first 5 words of the article.

a small glass vile

Like the one the WNBA star had (who will likely get a hero's welcome when she comes home)?

In my non-sarcastic mode, no, he should face the law the same as any other offender and get no special privilege.
