For the second time in less than a week, the Concordia Narcotics Task Force had to contact Louisiana child welfare officials regarding children in apparent unhealthy living conditions where the adults were allegedly abusing drugs.

According to a CPSO press release, Wednesday Stephanie L. Reid, 18, Brandy L. Tiser, 21, Antonio A. Bryant, 19 and George Lewis Thurmond of 129 Donald Drive, Vidalia, were charged with possession of drug paraphernalia, cultivation of marijuana, cruelty to a juvenile and improper supervision of a minor.

Wednesday Bryant’s bond was set in Seventh District Court for $37, 250.

Bonds for the other suspects were set at $42, 250 each.

According to the release, CNTF officers found seven marijuana plants growing inside the kitchen of the residence.

Officers also found other drug paraphernalia inside the residence.

Arresting officer Sgt. Gregg Jackson said that two girls, a two-year old and a three-month old were also on the premises.

Three dogs were also roaming in the house and animal urine and feces were found throughout the residence, including in the children’s sleeping area, Jackson stated.

Earlier in the week, CNTF arrested a Vidalia woman on assorted drug charges after she was spotted driving at a high rate of speed on Louisiana 129 in Monterey.

Monday Patricia Lynn Waite, 36, 1167 Pecan Acres, No. 6, was charged with possession of schedule I and II drugs, possession of drug paraphernalia and reckless operation of a vehicle.
