Description

Civilian employees of Braniff Airways and the air terminal testified that the appellant and two young women arrived in company with each other at the airport shortly before a flight to Washington, D.C., was scheduled to depart. The appellant carried a grey suitcase and each woman had one white suitcase and a footlocker. While issuing the tickets and baggage checks an attendant detected the odor of marihuana coming from appellants baggage. He followed the baggage to the baggage room and pushed the sides of the appellants suitcase together, creating a bellows effect, which produced a strong odor of marihuana. He then smelled the other luggage on the baggage cart and also detected an odor of marihuana escaping from the womens luggage. He pried open the corner of the footlockers and was able to see cellophane bags, and further clearly detected the odor of marihuana. Another agent unlocked appellants suitcase and found it filled with plastic bags containing a grassy substance which he identified as marihuana. The agents then called their superior who, in turn, called the Austin police. Captain Gann of the narcotic section arrived shortly before the plane was due to depart. The bags in question had been put aboard the plane, but Gann and airport officials boarded the plane, examined the bags and after confirming the fact that they contained marihuana arrested appellant and the two women.
