August 26, 2020 about 12:39 a.m. a deputy saw a vehicle on U.S. 36 that was traveling only 52 in a 65.  Deputy reported seeing the vehicle crossing the lane dividing line multiple times and made a stop of the car. 

Subsequent investigation shows the two occupants were traveling from Indiana to Mound City, MO and were allegedly in possession of a quantity of Methamphetamine and Methamphetamine Drug Paraphernalia.  A female deputy was called out to assist as one suspect also reportedly had controlled substance and other evidence hidden on her person.

Deputy Williams and Deputy Wilson arrested Rebecca Dawn Kephart, 42 and Stacy Lynn Crist, 45 for the alleged drug crime.  Both were interviewed, processed and transported to the Daviess Dekalb Regional Jail and have since been charged in Livingston County Associate Court with class D felony Possession of Controlled Substance-Methamphetamine.

Good job by all.
