According to a statement from the sheriff’s office, deputies initiated the stop on February 3, 2026, after observing a traffic violation involving a white Chevrolet Malibu near Highway 27. The driver was identified as Daniel S. Brewster, 46, of Oneida. Authorities noted Brewster was known to have an active warrant at the time of the stop.
A K9 unit was ultimately called to conduct a free-air sniff around the vehicle. The dog alerted law enforcement to the presence of narcotics, prompting a further search of the car. During that search, deputies reported recovering approximately 63.81 grams of methamphetamine, Suboxone pills, digital scales, and additional drug paraphernalia. The vehicle and a cellular phone were seized as evidence.
Brewster was taken into custody and charged with Manufacturing, Delivery, Sale, or Possession of Methamphetamine; Possession of Drug Paraphernalia; Possession of a Schedule III controlled substance; Tampering with or Fabricating Evidence; and Violation of Light Law.
His passenger, Michael Goodman, 56, of Oneida, was also arrested. Goodman faces charges of Manufacturing, Delivery, Sale, or Possession of Methamphetamine and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.
Authorities said the recovered substances have been submitted to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation for testing and additional confirmation.
In the meantime, the Scott County Sheriff’s Office reminds readers that all individuals are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
