Woman found with a pound of meth in vehicle, court documents say

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A woman was arrested on Wednesday evening after she was allegedly found with a pound of methamphetamine in her vehicle at a Fulton gas station.

Shannon Moyle, 47, was charged on Thursday in Callaway County with second-degree drug trafficking. She is being held at the Callaway County Jail without bond, though a mugshot was not immediately available. A hearing was held on Friday morning.

The probable cause statement says law enforcement had been investigating Moyle “for being a distributor of large quantities of methamphetamine in the central Missouri area,” when she was pulled over at the Fast Lane gas station on Amerihost Drive.

Law enforcement had allegedly seen her get into another vehicle before detaining her. A deputy had a search warrant and Moyle allegedly told him a pound of meth was in her vehicle. The deputy found plastic bags containing meth that equaled to about a pound.

She allegedly admitted to selling meth in Fulton and Mexico, Missouri, and going to Columbia to buy “pounds” of the drug, court documents say.
