Police Chief Sean Sweeney said this is Starbuck's fifth DWI arrest. He has four prior DWI convictions dating back to 1990 and six previous convictions on drug-related offenses dating back to 1986. He said Starbuck was convicted in Boston Federal Court in 1997 of possession with the intent to distribute.
Sweeney said Starbuck's car was packed with 8 to 9 boxes containing 51 marijuana plants "in the beginning stages of growth," as well as a large amount of cultivating equipment including plastic growing pots, heat lamps and a five-gallon bucket of manure.
