Alexander G. Jensen, 31, and Kristina M. Weyrough, 29, of Woodstock.

After a couple was found earlier this year with a large quantity of marijuana in their Woodstock home, a warrant has been issued for an Oregon resident accused of trafficking the marijuana to Illinois.

Alexander G. Jensen, 31, and Kristina M. Weyrough, 29, were arrested earlier this year following a search warrant of their home in the 100 block of Meadow Avenue in Woodstock.

McHenry County Assistant State’s Attorney Judy Shammo said in a motion that the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office received information from a confidential informant on January 22.

The informant told police that Jensen and Weyrough possessed and dealt large amounts of cannabis in their residence.

Officers obtained and executed a search warrant on January 22 at the couple’s residence on Meadow Avenue in Woodstock.

Officers recovered approximately 3,000 grams of cannabis throughout the home and also found $12,000 in cash, Shammo said.

Weyrough told detectives that the cannabis in the home belonged to her while Jensen told detectives the cannabis belonged to him.

Weyrough told detectives she purchases cannabis from Oregon and has it shipped to various residences in McHenry County.

She allowed the detectives to search her cellphone and authorities found the name and address of a woman named “Maya” that Weyrough had been communicating with.

Weyrough admitted that she arranged for cannabis to be shipped to Maya’s residence in Wonder Lake.

Officers responded to Maya’s residence and were given permission to enter and search.

Officers were provided a written statement from Maya indicating that Weyrough arranged the shipment of cannabis to Maya’s home and Weyrough picked it up from her.

Detectives also found text messages on Weyrough’s phone with a subject in Oregon where she arranged the shipment of cannabis packages.

The packages were recovered and contained around five pounds of cannabis.

Weyrough was charged in January with cannabis trafficking of more than 5000 grams, calculated criminal cannabis conspiracy and money laundering.

In late November, an arrest warrant was signed by a McHenry County judge for a fourth person, identified as Nicholas Kaufman, 44, of Ashland, Oregon.
