CORINTH – A Corinth woman is facing felony charges after investigators say her children tested positive for illegal substances.
According to the Corinth Police Department, 31-year-old Ettamae Krol was arrested on August 15 and charged with child endangerment. The arrest followed an earlier investigation in which her minor children tested positive for drugs, including methamphetamine.
Detectives executed a search warrant at a residence on Waldron Street as part of the case. Inside, they reported finding marijuana and drug paraphernalia. Five children were removed from the home and placed in the custody of the Mississippi Department of Child Protection Services.
