MONTGOMERY COUNTY —Law enforcement authorities are investigating a Kansas woman on multiple charges after a traffic stop.
Just after 4p.m. August 19, Sheriff's deputies conducted a vehicle stop at 14th and Walnut in Independence on a 2001 GMC Yukon for displaying a tag that belonged to a different vehicle, according to Sheriff Ron Wade.
Deputies identified the driver as 25-year-old Jade T.M. Ramirez-Gonzalez of Coffeyville, Kansas and learned she had an active federal warrant from the US Marshalls, stemming from a narcotics case.
Deputies took her into custody for the warrant. Deputies also searched the vehicle and located marijuana.
Jade was transported to the Montgomery County Department of Corrections and upon arrival and as she was being booked it was discovered that she had brought methamphetamine into DOC.
She remains in custody without bond on requested charges of no vehicle registration, no liability insurance, possession of methamphetamine, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of marijuana and trafficking contraband into a correction facility.
