INTERSTATE 390: Livingston County Sheriff Thomas J.
Dougherty reports the arrest of three Allegany County residents after a traffic
stop on Interstate 390 as part of Operation Safe Interstate. On August 17, 2017
Deputy Shawn Whitford was assigned to the Sheriff’s Office “Operation Safe
Interstate” initiative and stopped a vehicle in the Town of Geneseo for a
traffic violation, as well as seeing a wanted person in the vehicle. During the
course of the traffic stop the Deputy Sheriff discovered that the driver, 34-year-Keith
M. Hennard of Fillmore, was allegedly in possession of cocaine. Hennard was placed under arrest for Criminal
Possession of a Controlled Substance in the 7th Degree. A subsequent search of
the vehicle allegedly yielded the discovery of drug paraphernalia as well as a
quantity of heroin. These findings led to the arrest of the passengers in the
vehicle. The passengers, 34-year-old Hannah L. Jones from Belmont and 31-year-old
Annetta N. Barrett from Friendship, were charged with Criminal Possession of a
Controlled Substance in the 7th Degree. Barrett also received an additional
charge of Criminal Impersonation because she allegedly initially lied about who
she was. Barrett had outstanding warrants issued for her out of Allegany
County. Hennard, Jones, and Barrett were turned over to Central Booking
Deputies at the Livingston County Jail for processing and pre-arraignment
detention. The three were later arraigned in the Town of Geneseo Court before
Justice Houston. The Judge remanded all three to the custody of the Sheriff
with the following bail: Hennard and Jones on $500 cash or $1,000 bond and
Barrett on $750 cash or $1,500 bond.
