(KAIR)--Jefferson County Sheriff’s deputies searching for a wanted fugitive at an Oskaloosa home Tuesday discovered evidence of illegal drugs and took three individuals into custody.
According to a press release from the Sheriff’s office, deputies arrived at the home in the 400 block of Union Street after receiving a tip that Destinee Back, who is on the Northeast Kansas Most Wanted list , may be at the residence.
While looking for Back, deputies saw what appeared to be a pipe used for smoking illegal drugs. A search warrant was issued, and several drug related items were recovered. The home’s occupants, 48-year-old Donavon McCleary, 40-year-old Jonny Owens, and 50-year-old Annie True were arrested and booked into the Jefferson County Jail. Each faces a charge of use of, or possession with intent to use drug paraphernalia into the human body.
Back, who was not at the home, remains at large.
