Guilty plea: Jefferson County man admits to having pipe bombs and meth
ST. LOUIS – A man from Byrnes Mill, Missouri, appeared in federal court on Wednesday and admitted possessing pipe bombs and methamphetamine during a traffic stop.
Prosecutors for the US Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Missouri said Douglas Moore, 47, was pulled over by a Jefferson County sheriff’s deputy on May 11, 2021 for driving a 2004 Suzuki Aerio with expired license plates.
During the stop, the deputy learned that Moore had active warrants and took Moore into custody. After the arrest, the MP searched Moore’s vehicle and found pipe bombs and methamphetamine.
Moore was also on parole at the time of his arrest and had served in both Ste. Genevieve and Jefferson counties.
Moore pleaded guilty to possession of an unregistered destruction device. He will be sentenced in July and faces up to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
