(KNZA)--A Hiawatha woman facing charges in two separate cases has waived her preliminary hearing.
21-year-old Jaimie Wardrup was bound over to Brown County District Court Wednesday on charges of aggravated indecent liberties with a child and criminal sodomy involving a child in one case.
In the other case, she was bound over on charges of aggravated interference with parental custody, felony theft and contributing to a child’s misconduct.
Arraignment was scheduled for July 11th.
Wardrup was arrested April 26th in Arkansas with three teenage runaways from the Hiawatha area who disappeared the day before. Authorities say she was driving a pickup truck that had allegedly been stolen from Hiawatha.
The child sex charges, involving a child born in 2000, were filed following an investigation by the Hiawatha Police Department after her extradition back to Kansas.
She remains in the Brown County Jail, held on a total bond of $75,000 in both cases.
