During the stop, the driver, identified as Jason Nystrom, age 53 of Magalia, was found to be on felony parole for burglary. A search under parole terms revealed methamphetamine in his jacket pocket.
Nystrom was arrested for possession of methamphetamine and a parole violation. Additionally, due to the enhanced penalties under Proposition 36 for individuals with two or more prior drug-related convictions, a felony drug charge was added to the booking.”
