HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A 33-year-old woman was arrested last Friday on drug distribution charges and again failed to get her bond reduced when she appeared before a judge Wednesday morning.

Francesca Wharton is now charged with possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia with intent to distribute, possession of personal use drug paraphernalia, possession of marijuana and criminal possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

District Judge Joe McCarville wouldn’t even consider a bond reduction because of the charges which came after two search warrants were served including a vehicle and a local home.

Besides the drugs and paraphernalia, officers also found a Winchester .22 caliber rifle that was reported stolen through the Reno County Sheriff’s Office. An additional glock handgun was also found in the residence.

Wharton is jailed on a $30,000 bond and will be back in court on Jan. 9.
