Convicted Meth Dealer Facing More Charges For Dealing

By Amanda Bridgman-

A convicted meth dealer is facing more than a dozen charges for allegedly dealing meth to undercover cops and stealing a vehicle.

Lisa Marie Klinge, 38, of 208 W. Fifth St., Milford, was booked in the Kosciusko County Jail at 11:02 a.m. Jan. 21 and is facing charges in two separate cases.

In the first case filed Jan. 28 in Kosciusko Circuit Court, Klinge is facing charges for dealing in methamphetamine, a Level 4 felony; possession of methamphetamine, a Level 6 felony; dealing in a narcotic drug, a Level 5 felony; possession of a narcotic drug, a Level 6 felony; dealing in methamphetamine, a Level 3 felony; possession of methamphetamine, a Level 5 felony; dealing in methamphetamine with an enhancing circumstance, a Level 3 felony; possession of methamphetamine with an enhancing circumstance, a Level 5 felony; dealing in a narcotic drug with an enhancing circumstance, a Level 4 felony; possession of a narcotic drug with an enhancing circumstance, a Level 5 felony; dealing in methamphetamine with an enhancing circumstance, a Level 2 felony; and possession of methamphetamine with an enhancing circumstance, a Level 4 felony.

According to the probable cause affidavit, those charges are a result of two incidents in December where Klinge dealt 13.62 grams of methamphetamine and .22 grams of a narcotic drug to undercover officers with NET 43.

These drug deals were captured on video and audio surveillance. According to court records, Klinge was convicted in Kosciusko County in November 2016 for a Level 5 felony dealing in methamphetamine charge.

Klinge’s other open case stems from a call Pierceton Police fielded Jan. 21 from a man who said his vehicle was stolen and that his ex-girlfriend, Klinge, had a key to the vehicle and may have taken it.

According to court papers, police went to Klinge’s place of employment and spoke to her, where she said she paid for the vehicle and had an agreement with the man that they both could use it.

Klinge was unable to provide police with any proof of her statements and further digging by police revealed her driver’s license was suspended anyway.

Her bond in the auto theft case was set at $5,250.
