Child Services Welfare Check Leads To 4 Drug ArrestsA Child Protective Services welfare check led to the arrest of four people in the 3300 block of East Old Colony Drive, Warsaw, around 1 p.m. Wednesday.
The CPS official and the Warsaw officer entered the residence and found drugs and paraphernalia out in the open.
The officer called for backup from the department’s drug investigators, and four people were taken into custody.
The four were:
• Julia Ann Pierce, 45, of 3762 E. Old Road 30, #618, Warsaw, charged with possession of meth, possession of paraphernalia - misdemeanor, resisting law enforcement and disorderly conduct - fighting.
• Donald P. Dill Jr., 43, Warsaw, charged with possession of marijuana and possession of paraphernalia.
• Hanna Elizabeth Jackson, 20, was charged with maintaining a common nuisance and possession of meth.
• Tyler Lee Goodpaster, 22, faces charges of possession of meth, possession of paraphernalia and maintaining a common nuisance.
Jackson and Goodpaster are residents of the home on East Old Colony Drive.
Pierce, Jackson and Goodpaster were held in the Kosciusko County Jail on $5,250 bond each. Dill’s bond was set at $600.
Warsaw Police Chief Scott Whitaker said it’s not out of the ordinary for CPS to ask for an officer assist for welfare checks.
