A Cedartown man and woman were jailed on drug charges after Polk County Police pulled the pair over in an early Sunday morning traffic stop and found pills and pipes suspected to have been used to smoke heroin, according to reports.

Michael Dean Clackum, 37, of 861 Akes Station Road, Cedartown, and Elaina Janette Hernandez, 29, of 270 Brusterfield Road, Cedartown, were both jailed on felony and misdemeanor drug charges after they were pulled over in a 1997 Dodge Ram with a brake light out around 3:15 a.m. on Sunday, July 18.

Police reported that Clackum and Hernandez were driving in the truck registered to another man who had an expired license. While talking to the pair, police noticed the ignition was busted out of the steering column and that Hernandez reported the truck was theirs and “someone had stolen it in the past and she had just recently obtained it again.”

Officers then found several “small zipper style bags” within the cab of the truck, then found a brown pope believed to be used to smoke heroin.

Both were asked out of the vehicle for a search and consented, and during that time police learned that Hernandez had a warrant out in Hall County and took her into custody.

Going back to the search, police found an ammo box under the driver’s seat with used syringes, suspected heroin, a spoon with heroin residue, a medication bottle with 36 1/2 pills of Quetiapine (an antipsychotic medicine used to treat schizophrenia and bipolar disorder,) digital scales with potential heroin residue on them, and five more smoking pipes.

Police impounded the truck after it was towed away, and Clackum was also taken into custody as well.

Both were booked into the Polk County Jail where they remained as of this posting.

Clackum faces felony charges of possession of heroin, possession of tools for the commission of a crime and sale, manufacture, deliver or possess dangerous drugs, along with misdemeanor possession and use of drug-related objects. He was being held on a $10,000 bond.

Hernandez was being held on felony charges of possession of a Schedule I controlled substance, possession of tools for the commission of a crime, sale, manufacture, deliver or possess dangerous drugs and a misdemeanor charge of possession and use of drug-related objects. Her bond was also set at $10,000.
