On Friday, a deputy arrested James David Braddock for a suspended Driver’s License and DUI.

But further investigation led to further problems for the Rienzi man.

By the time it was over Braddock was also facing charges of felony possession of a controlled substance, possession of a controlled substance in a correctional facility, and tampering with physical evidence, for reportedly trying to destroy evidence in the jail.
