A 21-year-old Carson City woman was arrested Thursday on a felony charge of suspicion of maintaining a house where drugs are sold, used or both, a Carson City sheriff's deputy said.
Officers with the Sheriff's Office Special Enforcement Team arrested Stacy Babb at a Jeanell Drive apartment where several had complained about recent drug activity going on. Her bail was set at $21,137.
When officers arrived Babb was at the apartment along with two other men. Deputies found paraphernalia and drug residue inside the home. The woman at first admitted to having drugs and doing drugs in the home with others, but recanted the statement, the arrest report states.
The home did not have any functioning electricity and was in disarray, consistent with complaints that the apartment was being used primarily for narcotics use, the arrest report states. The woman had also been served with an eviction notice for failure to pay rent.
An 18-year-old man, Michael Carpenter, was arrested at the apartment on felony suspicion of possession of methamphetamine after deputies found the drug wrapped in tinfoil inside his pocket. Bail: $2,500.
