Wisconsin Man Connected to THC E-cigarette Ring Arrested on Drug Charges

Jacob Huffhines, originally from Wisconsin's Racine County, was convicted in 2019 for his involvement with a THC e-cigarette ring in Kenosha County. On Tuesday, August 2nd, he was arrested in Mount Pleasant on drug charges. The 26-year-old is facing charges for possession of a narcotic and possession of cocaine.

When authorities found Huffhines, he was in a parking lot and shirtless, appearing intoxicated. According to prosecutors, he told officers he thought his tire was flat, so he drove into the lot and waited for a ride. Huffhines was arrested and subjected to a blood test. Law enforcement discovered 0.8 grams of cocaine/fentanyl in cash taken from his pocket.

Tyler Huffhines, the mastermind behind the case, has pleaded guilty to two charges while three others have been dropped. He and seven others, including his brother and mother, were charged. Prosecutors in 2019 said that Huffhines' operation was based in an apartment in Bristol and a real estate office in Union Grove run by his mother. During the investigation, authorities seized tens of thousands of bullets, dozens of cans of THC oil, drug manufacturing supplies, and cash from the Bristol and Union Grove locations.

As part of a plea deal with prosecutors, seven other defendants also pleaded guilty: Courtney Huffhines, 45; Jordan Lynam, 25; Tarail King, 25; Wesley Webb, 22; Daniel Graumenz, 22; and Hannah Curty, 22. They are scheduled to be sentenced in November.

In this case, Jacob Huffhines admitted in May to possessing THC with the intent to deliver (less than 10,000 grams), and also admitted that a convicted felon in his possession also had guns. Five charges were dismissed.
