PAOLA, Kan. (AP) — Authorities say a former northeast Kansas dispatcher has been charged with felony possession of methamphetamine.

The Kansas City Star reports that Debbie Henson was a dispatch supervisor with the Miami County Sheriff’s Office until Kansas Bureau of Investigation agents arrested her this month. The sheriff’s office says she’s no longer employed by the agency. It wasn’t immediately known if she had an attorney.

Besides the drug charge, Henson faces one count each of possession of drug paraphernalia and official misconduct, both misdemeanors.

Henson was with the sheriff’s office for about 18 years.
