It's June of 2017.

John Gilberth, who's 52 years old at this time,

is driving home to San Angelo from Austin.

Gilberth is the one who reached out to Marshall and Pat

after Shane and Sally were killed, offering to help

them solve the case. His girlfriend is next to him in the passenger seat, and they're

nearly home on the outskirts of St. Angelo, when they're pulled over by a sheriff's deputy.

The deputy walks up to the car and says he saw Gilbert change lanes without signaling.

But now, standing by the window, he says he also smells marijuana.

Gilbrough says yes he does have a couple joints with him and the deputy decides to search the car.

In the pocket of a door in a cigarette case, the deputy finds the joints.

Then he pops the trunk. In there, he finds nearly another half pound of marijuana.

He also finds a Kevar vest and a 38 caliber pistol.

Gilberth has a previous drug-related felony on his record,

which means he isn't allowed to have that gun.

Now, he's facing prison time.
