A woman was arrested last week after she produced baggies of methamphetamine from her undergarments during a probation search.

23 year old Crystal May Smith of Andrew Street, Smithville is charged with simple possession of a schedule II drug. Her bond is $7,000 and she will make a court appearance on November 8.

Sheriff Patrick Ray said that on Wednesday, October 24, a deputy went to a residence on Miller Road and spoke with Smith while attempting to serve a warrant. Smith, who is on probation, submitted to a search of her person and from her undergarments, she pulled two baggies of a crystal like substance believed to be methamphetamine. The total weight of the substance was 0.3 grams. She also had in her possession a glass pipe containing residue. Smith had previously been cited twice in the past two weeks for possession of methamphetamine, once by a city officer October 9, and the other by this same county deputy on October 18.

26 year old Robert Glenn Judkins of Smithville is charged with criminal impersonation. His bond is $2,500 and he will make a court appearance on November 15.

Sheriff Ray said that on Friday, October 26 a deputy responded to a littering complaint on Parsley Road and spotted the suspect vehicle, a black Nissan truck. The officer stopped and spoke with a passenger of the truck who identified himself as Lucas Bassham and gave his date of birth as December 13, 1987. Knowing that the man was actually Robert Judkins and learning that his date of birth is December 13, 1991, the officer charged Judkins for assuming a false identity.
