Webb City man to be arraigned for drug trafficking, endangering the welfare of a child


A Webb City man charged with drug trafficking will be arraigned in Jasper County Circuit Court Monday.

Sterling Bryce Peppers, 44, was bound over for trial after waiving his preliminary hearing February 23.

Peppers was charged following the execution of a search warrant at his home at 911 West 1st Street in Webb City in September 2022.








Ozarks Drug Enforcement Team members and Webb City Police Department officers seized a large quantity of methamphetamines and several firearms, according to a news release issued after the arrest.

In addition to drug trafficking, Peppers is charged with two counts of unlawful use of a weapon and one count of endangering the welfare of a child.

Peppers' arraignment was originally scheduled for April 24.
