Johnson woman arrested for meth trafficking after being reported for unrestrained kids
PAINTSVILLE, Ky. — A Johnson County woman is facing drug trafficking and child endangerment charges, after she was reported for not having her children in car seats.
Paintsville Police were called Saturday to Euclid Avenue to speak to the woman. When asked why the children were not restrained, she reportedly told them she was “just running to the dollar store.”
When asked for her license, she said she didn’t have it with her, but gave police a name and birth date, which didn’t return any results during a records check. She also gave an age that didn’t match the birth date she had given.
When confronted about the discrepancies, she then identified herself as Megan Neidlinger, 30, of Boons Camp. That’s when police discovered she had an outstanding warrant for a 2024 shoplifting case.
She was placed under arrest and her car was searched, resulting in the discovery of several bags of meth, a substantial number of $20 bills and drug paraphernalia.
Neidlinger now faces charges of meth trafficking, endangering the welfare of a minor, giving an officer false information and several other charges. She continues to be held in the Big Sandy Regional Detention Center.
