Cheryl Battaglia of Brookville is up on felony drug charges.
Reports say the Jefferson County Drug Task Force set up a controlled buy between an informant and Battaglia to get Adderall pills for $40. The informant went to the residence, Battaglia answered the door and the pair went to the pickup parked out front. Battaglia opened the driver’s side rear door, the two stood there for a few minutes. The informant returned with 10 white pills.
The next day the task force set up a buy for two Suboxone strips for $80. Battaglia pulled up in the pickup, the informant approached and stood there for a few moments before Battaglia drove off. The informant turned in two Suboxone strips and also reported that Battaglia had three kids in the truck, including her son.
She was charged August 30th in Judge Inzana’s office and is lodged in the Jefferson County Jail, unable to post bail. Her preliminary hearing is scheduled for September 28th.
