An Eddyville woman was arrested last Friday as a residence about 10 miles south of the city on KY 93.
The Lyon County Sheriff's Office was assisting KY Probation & Parole officers in an investigation which revealed 47-year-old Paula J. Hunter was found in possession of suspected methamphetamine, marijuana and drug paraphernalia.
She was arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance, possession of marijuana, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
In addition, Probation & Parole Officers filed a detainer on her for a felony probation violation.
Hunter was convicted of six counts of trafficking in a controlled substance in Lyon Circuit Court in 2022 and sentenced in August of that year.
She received a prison sentence of ten years; however, she completed nearly six months in
jail before being shock probated by a Lyon Circuit Court Judge and sent to drug rehabilitation for approximately six months before being released from custody.
Hunter was lodged in the Crittenden County Detention Center on the new charges.
