Formal charges have been filed against Sedalia woman who was arrested as result of the execution of a search warrant on April 22.

During execution of the warrant, authorities say there were five juvenile children present in the home; all of whom were released to family members after a hotline report was made to Division of Family Services. Approximately two ounces of methamphetamine, paraphernalia and a stolen vehicle (reported stolen to the Sedalia Police Department earlier in the week) were recovered.

Court documents say Melissa Elizabeth Tobin is charged with felonies for trafficking drugs in the second degree and endangering the welfare of children involving drugs in the first degree, first offense. Bond is set at $10,000 cash or surety.

Tobin’s initial hearing is pending at Pettis County Circuit Court.
