According to the probable cause affidavits, officers found drugs and drug paraphernalia on the living room table, in a bedroom and in the kitchen, as well as on Moore’s person. A plastic tube with white powdery residue was also found behind a vent in the hallway of the residence. Officers also located five crossbows and one muzzleloader. The crystalline substance field tested positive for methamphetamine. Pills found in the home were identified as Methadone.

The two face felony charges of maintaining drug premises, possession of a controlled substance with the purpose to deliver Schedule I or II, use or possession with the purpose to use drug paraphernalia, and use or possession with the purpose to use drug paraphernalia with the purpose to analyze methamphetamine.
