Johnston's arrest was oxycontin-related (Levi's Mother)

[RamboLiberal]

WASILLA -- Wasilla resident Sherry L. Johnston, mother of Bristol Palin's boyfriend, faces a Jan. 6 court date for an oxycontin-related arrest at her home by Alaska State Troopers.

Little additional information was available Friday on the case as authorities remained unusually tight-lipped about details. But Palmer court records listed her scheduled court date and a troopers spokeswoman said in a release late Friday afternoon that the charges "are in relation to the drug oxycontin."

Johnston is the mother of Levi Johnston, the Wasilla 18-year-old suddenly placed in an international spotlight in September when Gov. Sarah Palin -- who was then running for vice president on the Republican ticket with John McCain -- and her husband, Todd, announced their teenage daughter was pregnant and he was the father.

Johnston's first court appearance will be an arraignment hearing -- when defendants are informed of their charges and usually enter a plea -- scheduled for Jan. 6, according to the Palmer court calendar.

She was arrested around noon Thursday by troopers serving a search warrant in an undercover drug investigation. A standard press released issued by troopers said Johnston was arrested on six felony counts: second-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance -- generally manufacturing or delivering drugs -- as well as fourth-degree misconduct involving controlled substances, or possession.

5. manufacturing *or* delivering..

manufacturing could be either cooking meth, or growing pot, or making ectasy...

delivering = selling

misconduct involving controlled substances = selling her prescription (or they could go for prescription fraud and/or insurance fraud)



"second-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance -- generally manufacturing or delivering drugs -- as well as fourth-degree misconduct involving controlled substances, or possession."
