Jeremy Madix, Brother of TV Star, Arrested for Marijuana Possession

Date:

ORLANDO, Fla.  — Jeremy Madix, brother of “Vanderpump Rules” star Ariana Madix, was arrested Tuesday on charges of felony trafficking in cannabis, according to court documents obtained by The Associated Press.

The arrest stems from an incident on February 16 at Orlando International Airport, where Customs and Border Protection agents reportedly discovered over 100 pounds of marijuana in luggage belonging to Madix and an associate, Jonah Ahad.

According to the court documents, Madix and Ahad were scheduled to board a flight to Frankfurt, Germany, when their luggage was searched at a security checkpoint. Agents allegedly found 64 bags of marijuana weighing approximately 76 pounds in two suitcases belonging to Madix. An additional 31 bags weighing 37 pounds were reportedly discovered in Ahad’s suitcase.

The Orlando Police Department reports that both men declined to answer questions without attorneys present when detectives attempted to question them at the time of the discovery.

Despite the February incident, arrests were not made immediately. Ahad was taken into custody in May, while Madix was arrested this past Tuesday. Both face charges of felony trafficking in cannabis.

Jeremy Madix has previously appeared on the reality TV show “Vanderpump Rules” alongside his sister Ariana.

The Orlando Police Department has not provided information on why arrests were delayed following the initial discovery in February. The investigation is ongoing.
