HCSD arrests woman on drug charges

A woman was arrested on drug and child endangerment charges after a narcotic search at a Brownsboro residence Monday.

Theresa Halsey, 52, was arraigned Tuesday with bond set at $100,000 on a charge of manufacture with intent to deliver a controlled substance — 4 to 200 grams. Bond was set at $25,000 on a state jail felony charge of endangering a child.

Henderson County Sheriff’s Department reports states Drug Enforcement Unit Investigators and Brownsboro Police went to an address on Browning Street shortly after 6 p.m. to execute a narcotics search. Investigators searched the property and found a quantity of methamphetamine inside the residence.

Investigators also contacted Child Protective Services in reference to a 14 year old girl who was living in the residence where the meth was located.

CPS responded and placed the child in the care of a family member. Halsey was tranported to jail and booked shortly before midnight.
