An Illinois woman who was arrested on drug charges last year was taken into custody last week for multiple additional narcotics-related offenses.
According to reports, last year on March 11, a woman who was the postmaster of Gallatin County was charged with felony possession of methamphetamine (Class 3), and misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia (Class A). The 36-year-old woman, who lives in New Haven, was scheduled to appear in court last week regarding those charges. A day before her court date, she found herself again accused of drug-related crimes.
Early in the morning on March 10, the woman was reportedly driving a vehicle without a visible license plate in Mt. Vernon. She caught the attention of officers from the Mt. Vernon Police Department, and they allegedly saw her make a turn without using her signal. They performed a traffic stop, and the woman pulled over without incident.
