“He just dropped a bag that looked like dope,” one of the deputies said in the video.

“Aww man,” the man’s girlfriend responded in ultimate disappointment... But not disappointed that her man had drugs, disappointed that he got caught with them.

After inspection, Deputies reported that Schneider had dropped a half of pound of methamphetamine that he bought outside Volusia County.

The Sheriff's Office suspected that the man was taking it to a home in Orange City where he would sell it.

While being handcuffed, both Sanberg and Schneider said that the meth did not belong to them.

After the couple tried to lie, the deputy laughed and said, “I mean, whatever, you might as well try to lie. You ain’t got nothing to lose.”

Deputies said they found another gram in Schneider’s right sock.

Schneider was charged with trafficking in methamphetamine, tampering with evidence, and resisting without violence. Sanberg was charged with conspiracy to traffick in methamphetamine.
