Bode Miller is no longer facing any criminal penalties in Idaho after prosecutors agreed to dismiss the full case tied to a traffic stop earlier this month.
The former U.S. ski star, now 48, had been arrested on June 6, 2026, in Fremont County, prompting widespread attention after court records showed he was accused of two misdemeanor offenses.
Those allegations involved possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. Early filings from the Fremont County Sheriff’s Department claimed deputies found a white dispensary bag containing 4.1 grams of psilocybin mushrooms.
After his arrest, Miller was taken into custody, later released on a $5,000 cash bond, and entered not guilty pleas on both counts. A pretrial hearing had been scheduled for July 29 before the case changed course.
That case has now been abandoned.
On Wednesday evening, Miller’s attorney Jeromy Stafford said Fremont County Prosecutor Lindsey Blake had agreed to drop every charge.
“No drugs were found on Bode’s person,” Stafford stated in an official email, according to East Idaho News. “After speaking with the Prosecuting Attorney for Fremont County, Idaho, Lindsey Blake, she has agreed to dismiss all charges against Bode Miller.”
The dismissal, made in the “interest of justice,” matches the explanation Miller gave publicly soon after the arrest became known.
He said the incident started with a traffic stop after deputies pulled him over while he was speeding up to pass another vehicle on an Idaho road.
Miller also said the disputed items belonged to another person riding with him.
“My friend, who was traveling with me, had a small amount of cannabis and a cannabis pipe in his possession, which I was unaware of,” Miller explained to his followers on Instagram.
“We fully cooperated with the officer. I am hopeful the misdemeanor charges will be dropped once the facts are reviewed.”
Attorneys later said the passenger accepted full responsibility for the substances and related items, leaving no basis to connect Miller to them.
With no evidence supporting the claims against the Olympian, prosecutors moved to formally end the matter.
The result means Miller avoids a misdemeanor conviction and brings the brief legal episode to a close.
Miller remains one of the most accomplished alpine skiers the United States has produced. Over the course of his career, he won six Olympic medals, including gold in the super-combined at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.
His achievements also include four World Championship gold medals, two overall World Cup crowns, and 33 World Cup race wins, cementing his place among the sport’s all-time greats.
