While deputies assisted Stone County coroner Rick Stumpf, they noticed a hemostat holding what appeared to be the remnant of a joint in a nearby ashtray.

Authorities then asked the elder Becks for permission to search the house and the couple consented.

When cops asked the Becks if there was any marijuana or paraphernalia located within the home, Roger Beck motioned to a closet nearby and provided a container with approximately 30 grams of marijuana along with marijuana smoking devices. Also discovered in the search was additional pot totaling over 80 grams, and generic Xanax.
Thirty three year-old Roger, and forty year-old Sherl Beck have both been charged with two counts of possession of a controlled substance.

They are being held in the Stone County jail on $25,000 cash only bond.

An autopsy is scheduled to be conducted on the young man later today.

What's wrong with you people? I know so many of you that give drugs, and alcohol to these kids. Is it because you can't get any friends your own age? My God, grow up, get a real job, flip burgers but quit putting these kids in danger. Both of these idiots You should get charged with all counts of child endangerment and the death penalty as well. Yeah, the death penalty. This youn life is gone, and yes he had choices but what kind of choices do most 18 year olds make? Not always real good ones. Now he is gone forever because of you stupid idiots. May your life in prison be very hard ones, what you will serve anyway, and may the rest of your life be miserable, and haunting. Life as this child knew it is gone forever, and I truly hope yours is too.

From one angry person who lost her son to the same idiotic thing !
