Probable cause: Three bags of meth found in Joplin woman's bedroom, stolen debit card on her refrigerator

A $10,000 bond has been set for a Joplin woman who was charged with possession of a controlled substance today after three bags of methamphetamine were found in her bedroom during a Joplin Police Department search.

The execution of a search warrant at the home of Leslie Dyan Williams (DOB 1982) at 518 South Patterson Avenue was conducted following an extensive investigation by the Joplin Police Department's FLEX team, according to the probable cause statement.

From the statement:

Three separate bags of a white, crystal powder were located. I believed the substance in all three bags to be Methamphetamine (Schedule II Controlled Substance) due to my training, experience and current position. These three bags were seized. 

Once back at the Joplin Police Department Evidence Facility, all three bags did test positive for Methamphetamine using the TruNarc Device. All the suspected narcotics will be sent to the MSHP Lab for Narcotic Testing. A Form 411 was also completed. 

Inside the kitchen I located a Debit Card. The debit card was inside a box that was magnetized, concealed behind the refrigerator. The name on the card read "Tracy Reynolds" The card was an SMB Debit Card (ending in 7507.) Once I looked up Tracy's name, I observed the debit card was reported stolen by Tracy on September 27th, 2023, to the Joplin Police Department. The report number for that case is: JPD-23-007091.
