Mayfield Arrested For Possession Of Methamphetamine

If he is found guilty, this will probably put an end to his lawsuit of NASCAR.


Suspended NASCAR driver Jeremy Mayfield, who is suing NASCAR over a failed drug test, was arrested on a felony charge of possession of methamphetamine Tuesday after being found with 1.5 grams of what was believed to be the drug at his home, according to an arrest report by the Catawba County (N.C.) Sheriff’s Department.

This is pretty sad.

Surprise, surprise. Not! :rolleyes:

The later reports he had over $100,000 in stolen property won't work in his favor either.

This time, he may be taking a "vacation"

Just a pathetic mess.

What a loser

I think NASCAR should consider giving him a lifetime ban, but that somehow seems redundant.

And it keeps on coming. From Jayski.


Mayfield indicted on drug charges: A week after a raid at his home that deputies say turned up meth, 69 guns and $100,00 in stolen goods, Jeremy Mayfield has been indicted by a grand jury on drug charges. Mayfield, a former NASCAR driver, was indicted by the Catawba County grand jury on Monday for felony possession of methamphetamine. Deputies say they found 6 baggies of meth in his home during a search they did on Nov. 1 for stolen goods. Although they say they found stolen property in the home, Mayfield was not charged with possession of stolen property or any charges other than drugs. About $100,000 worth of stolen merchandise was found on Mayfield's property. Police are working now to figure out if Mayfield knew the items were stolen and he had something to do with it. The Sheriff's Office says there are 69 guns that have been logged and are still waiting to see if any are stolen. In addition to these potential theft charges, Mayfield is also facing tax problems. Catawba county tax officials say Mayfield owes more than $82,000 in back taxes on his four properties. Authorities say he is one step from foreclosure. No word when or if theft charges will come for Mayfield. Investigators say that will be up to the District Attorney. Mayfield is due in court on Nov. 14 at 9 a.m.(WBTV), see earlier information on Mayfield's arrest on my #41 team news page.(11-7-2011)

Hopefully he can get things settled soon and get this case put on ice.

How did he end up in this mess. What a bellend.

I never liked the guy but unlike others i'm not going to take any pleasure in his demise. He's clearly a troubled guy who needs help and I hope he gets it and can turn his life around. Right now that doesn't seem likely.

Anyone who messes with Meth doesn't get my sympathy. To knowingly start taking an illegal narcotic (that has been proven to be HIGHLY addictive and detrimental) is an act of stupidity and arrogance. He has made his bed, let him lie in it...at some point, you have to save your sympathy for those who legitimately have been dealt a bad hand by fate. Jeremy Mayfield had talent, a dream job and tossed it all away......
