According to police reports, a traffic stop on Business Route 4 in Castleton on March 10, 2026, led to the arrest of 38-year-old Jamie Daniels, who was found to have an outstanding warrant for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. During the stop, police say Daniels resisted arrest but was ultimately taken into custody.
While processing Daniels at the Rutland Barracks, officers obtained a search warrant for her property and vehicle. According to the report, the search uncovered a significant quantity of cocaine and fentanyl, as well as a large sum of cash. Additionally, 55-year-old Jeffrey York, who was a passenger in the vehicle, was also found in possession of cocaine. York later appeared at the barracks where he was issued a citation and released.
Daniels was cited and transported to the Marble Valley Regional Correctional Facility, where she is being held without bail due to the warrant. She is scheduled to appear in Rutland County Court on March 11, 2026, and again on May 11, 2026, for further proceedings. As with all charges, these allegations remain unproven until resolved in court.
