Two Greene County women were arrested for allegedly selling drugs to minors.

According to court documents, the Greene County Sheriff’s Office began an investigation on October 15th of suspected illegal sales of marijuana from a home in the 400 block of 130th Street in Churdan. A search warrant was executed on October 16th, where drug-related items were seized from 61-year-old Lori Gannon. Deputies reviewed Gannon’s cell phone and found several people, including juveniles, were buying marijuana from her. Gannon also said she bought her marijuana supplies from 29-year-old Megan Wright of Jefferson.

Deputies then executed another search warrant on October 16th at Wright’s residence in the 100 block of East Central Street. Drug-related items were also seized there and when deputies reviewed Wright’s cell phone, they found several juveniles that purchased marijuana from her, some who had purchased from her for over one year. 

Wright was then arrested this past Wednesday and Gannon was arrested Thursday and both were charged with two Class B Felonies for ongoing criminal conduct and drug distribution to persons under 18, along with a Class D Felony for failure to affix drug tax stamp. They were booked into the Greene County Jail. Raccoon Valley Radio will bring you more information as it becomes official.
