Jackson man arrested on drug-trafficking charges

A Jackson, Wyo., man was arrested on drug-trafficking charges Friday.

The Teton County, Wyo., Sheriff’s Office said Ronald Joseph Badgerow, 21, was arrested without incident after deputies conducted a traffic stop at Nelson Drive and Hansen Avenue. He faces “several counts” of delivery of a controlled substance, marijuana.

Badgerow’s arrest is the culmination of an investigation that began last March, in which deputies said Badgerow made numerous deliveries of a controlled substance in various locations in Jackson and Teton County. At time of the traffic stop, additional narcotics were found inside the vehicle and taken as evidence.

Two females, including a 17-year-old, were detained for investigation, but were released without charges.

Detectives are continuing to investigate this case.
