A Salisbury man already jailed for having a methamphetamine lab in a West Bank Street rental home he shared with a couple faces additional trafficking charges, according to an arrest warrant.

Salisbury police charged Trampas Lee Money, 43, with felony trafficking in meth. He is currently jailed on trafficking charges after his Dec. 16 arrest. He received an additional $100,000 secured bond.

The warrant said Money had 142 grams of product. The offense date was Dec. 10 while the warrant was issued Friday. He is expected to make a first appearance Wednesday.

Police had been receiving complaints from people in the community about possible drug activity at the home and suspicions that the renters were likely “cooking meth,” an investigator has said.

Investigators searched the home and discovered five one-pot meth labs made from 2-liter soda bottles.

Money was originally arrested a week after authorities searched the home.
