Paducah police seek the public’s help in locating three people indicted by a grand jury on prescription drug charges.

Angel Woodward, Caleb Geeding and Jennifer Williams were indicted after two separate investigations.

Det. John Tolliver, prescription drug investigator for the Paducah Police Department, said he was contacted by a local pharmacy after the pharmacy received a prescription that appeared to have been altered. The pharmacist contacted the prescribing physician and learned that the date had, in fact, been changed to an earlier fill date.

When Angel Woodward returned to pick up the prescription, Tolliver confronted her and she admitted changing the fill date. Tolliver presented his investigation to a McCracken County grand jury, which indicted her on a charge of alteration of a prescription for a controlled substance.

In the second investigation, Tolliver said he received information that Caleb Geeding picked up a prescription for Clonazepam, a Schedule IV depressant, that had been refilled for another man. The pharmacy had called his girlfriend, Jennifer Williams, and informed her that the prescription was ready for pick-up.

Williams then told Geeding, who went to the pharmacy and got the prescription. Tolliver said this was the second time Williams was involved in improperly picking up a prescription filled for the victim, who was incarcerated both times.

A McCracken County grand jury indicted both Williams and Geeding on charges of obtaining a controlled substance by fraud.
