At approximately 10:22 PM, he observed a vehicle traveling westbound HWY 10 well over the posted speed limit. He utilized his radar and determined that the vehicle was traveling 14 miles per hour over the posted speed. Officer Hansen turned his squad to follow the suspect vehicle and saw it strike the fog line several times. He therefore activated his emergency lights and conducted a traffic stop. The suspect vehicle pulled to the shoulder and then stopped abruptly, having driven completely into the ditch.
Officer Hansen approached the vehicle and identified the driver as SHANA RENEE COSTELLO, [DOB REDACTED], the above‐named defendant. The Defendant told Officer Hansen that she did not have a valid driver’s license and that its status was revoked. The Defendant also could not provide proof of valid insurance when asked. While Officer Hansen spoke to the Defendant, he noticed that she had several red lesions on her face and hands. He could also see in plain view a clear but dirty white plastic baggie sticking out of the top of a purse inside the vehicle.
Officer Hansen ran the Defendant’s name through his squad computer system and learned that she was on probation for a controlled substance DWI and 5th degree‐controlled substance possession. Officer Hansen asked the Defendant about the plastic baggie and she said that there was jewelry inside of it. He then asked the Defendant for permission to search her vehicle and she consented to a search. Officer Hansen started with the plastic baggie and saw that it did have jewelry inside of it. In the purse, he also located another small plastic baggie and a metallic twist‐top container.
The plastic baggie appeared to contain psilocybin mushroom chunks. Officer Hansen asked the Defendant about it, and the Defendant confirmed that it was psilocybin. The metallic case contained a number of white pills. Seven were marked as M365 which were later identified as Acetaminophen‐Hydrocodone‐Bitartrate, a Schedule II Controlled Substance. Two were marked as AN267 and identified as Tramadol‐Hydrochloride, a Schedule IV Controlled Substance. A review of the Defendant’s criminal history shows that she was convicted of 5th Degree Controlled Substance Possession in Court File Number 02‐CR‐25‐667 on 08/18/2025. PLEASE TAKE NOTICE: Pursuant to Minn.
Stat. 609.49, intentional failure to appear for duly scheduled court appearances may result in additional criminal charges, and in addition to any arrest warrant that may otherwise be issued by the Court.
