WILLIAMSON - Two Edgarton women involved in an accident at Gilbert June 28 when the car in which they were riding struck a fence at the Big Bear Lodge, have been charged with child neglect.

According to a complaint signed by Gilbert Patrolman J. Hatfield, the women were each charged with child neglect because they failed to contact 911 or ‘ EMS to report any possible injuries to the young child of the vehicle’s driver.

The driver, identified as Regina Darlene Hurley, 28, admitted to Hatfield that she wrecked the vehicle, a Monte Carlo, and did not call 911 for her infant son. She also admitted to leaving the scene of an accident, the officer’s report stated Brittany Danielle Cantrell, 19, admitted being a passenger in the car and failed to report any possible injuries to 911 or EMS, according to the officer’s criminal complaint.

Mingo County Magistrate Pam Newsome arraigned the women over the weekend. Hurley’s bond was set at $11,000 and Cantrell’s bond was set at $10,000. Both defendants remain in Southwestern Regional Jail pending posting of bail.

• Seven other persons were arraigned during the weekend in Newsome’s court and two remained in jail this week in lieu of bond.

• Lola Ann Cline, 43, of Varney, W.Va., was charged, in a criminal complaint signed by Senior Trooper D.J. Chapman of the West Virginia State Police. The charges are knowingly giving false information to a member of the WVSP; simple possession of a controlled substance, 21 (50MG) Flor-icet pills, and child neglect.

Chapman’s complaint stated that on June 25, he responded to an “overdose call” at Musick Bottom where the defendant, Ms. Cline, denied taking any prescription medication although she apparently was under the influence of a drug. The officer was told by witnesses that Cline had been cooking pills on a metal spoon and injecting them into her body, a claim the woman initially denied.

Cline later admitted to injecting the cooked pills into her body, Chapman’s report said. He added that her 12year-old son and 17-year-old daughter were in the household at the time without any other adult supervIsIon.

Newsome set Cline’s bond on the three charges at $102,000 and she remained in the regional jail this week in lieu of bond.

• Two State police officers, Cpl. R.G. Flippen and Trooper B .R. Moore, were executing an arrest warrant June 26 at a Ragland residence occupied by Atlas Spradlin, 47, and his son, Christopher Spradlin, 23.

The warrant charged the son with burglary, grand larceny, delivery of a controlled substance, destruction of property and conspiracy to an offense. The charges dated back to a period between March 28 and 30, 2009, when the younger Spradlin allegedly conspired with another to break into the residence of Silas Hall and stole numerous items valued at more than $1,000.

During the commission of the crime, a glass door valued at approximately $400 was destroyed. Chris-topher Spradlin allegedly contacted a man and gave him 30 milligrams of Oxycontin tablets, a Sche-dule II controlled substance, to find a buyer for one of the stolen items.

During the visit to the Spradlin home, the State Police ‘ officers learned from the son that there were several firearms in a rear bedroom of the home. A consented search produced five firearms and several empty prescription pill bottles prescribed to Atlas Spradlin. A check of the older Spradlin’s record produced the fact that he was convicted of fleeing during a DUI on Dec. 13, 2005 and of wanton endangerment with an explosive on Jan. 19, 2001.

During arraignment, Newsome set Atlas Spra-dlin’s bond at $3,000 on a charge of being a felon in possession of a firearm. Bond for the son, Christopher, was set at $14,000. Both men posted bonds.

• Gary Troute, 52, of Delbarton, remains in the regional jail in lieu of bonds totaling $11,000 after being arraigned in Newsome’s court on charges of possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver and purchase or receipt of a prescription drug from a source other than a person or entity licensed pursuant to the laws of this state. Cpl. Flippen and Tpr. Moore were the complainants.

• Don Kevin Hatfield, 56, of Hardy, Ky., was named in a criminal complaint filed by Trooper Moore on June 5 following an incident in Williamson. Hat-field is charged with fleeing from a law enforcement officer in a vehicle; obstructing a law enforcement officer, and giving false information to officers Harper and Moore.

The officers stated that two men had walked out of the 3-Way bar in Williamson shortly before midnight on June 5 and entered a Toyota car with Kentucky registration. Af-ter exiting the parking area, they traveled on U.S. 52 and the driver failed to turn on the vehicle’s headlights. Moore sought to halt the vehicle but the driver refused and traveled on into Kentucky. Hatfield was identified as owner of the vehicle and the charges ensued. Hatfield posted $3,000 after arraignment.

• Jordan May, 19, and Leann C. May, 36, of Ragland, posted bonds after arraignments before Magistrate Newsome on a charge of entering without breaking the home of Mariana Meade on June 26, 2009. Jordan May, who also is charged with battery and simple possession of a controlled substance, posted $3,000 bond. Leann May posted $1,000 bond.

Jordan May allegedly shoved Mariana Meade after entering her home without being invited. Both Mays walked through the house, searching dresser drawers and arguing with Meade, according to a complaint filed by Cpl. Norman Mines and Cpl. Philip Mun-cy of the Mingo County Sheriff’s Department.

Jordan May had the drug charge imposed on him after the officers found a Schedule II controlled substance in the front pocket of his pants.
