MONROE — A search warrant and raid resulted in multiple felony and other charges for four residents of a Monroe house.

According to a criminal complaint, the house in the 800 block of 9th Street was raided by the State Line Anti-Narcotics Team (SLANT) early on March 5. It is unclear from the documents how police were tipped off to the possible presence of narcotics at the house, leading to the warrant’s execution.

But in addition to the drug-related evidence, an infant child was present in the home with access to areas where marijuana was being grown resulting, investigators said, in child neglect charges against three of the defendants.

Police found eight plants located in a room in the home that had been a former baby nursery, records indicate. Investigators also said in the criminal complaint that they found additional quantities of marijuana, a dozen amphetamine/methamphetamine pills, and several items with apparent cocaine residue.

Jason M. Reamer, 37, was charged with felony maintaining a drug trafficking place, felony manufacture of THC, felony child neglect and misdemeanor possession of THC and drug paraphernalia. 

Reamer appeared in court Wednesday on the charges, and pleaded not guilty before Green County Circuit Judge Thomas J. Vale. He remains free on a $500 signature bond. His next court appearance is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. April 23.

Nicole D. Andrews, 36, also was charged with felony maintaining a drug trafficking place, felony manufacture of THC, felony child neglect and misdemeanor possession of THC and drug paraphernalia. Andrews also appeared before Vale on Wednesday, having been freed Monday on a $2,500 signature bond. Her next appearance is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. April 19.

Zachari L. Andrews, 33, was charged with felony maintaining a drug trafficking place, felony possession of THC, felony manufacture/deliver THC, felony neglect of a child and misdemeanor possession. He is free on a $5,000 signature bond. His next appearance in circuit court is set for 8:30 a.m. April 16.

Cody A Kirschbaum, 25, also of 837 9th Street, was charged with felony maintaining a drug trafficking place, felony possession of THC, misdemeanor resisting, and misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia. Kirschbaum has been free on a $2,500 signature bond. His next appearance is set for 10:30 a.m. April 23.

Beyond the alleged drug activity, conditions at the house were reportedly not ideal for child-rearing, court records indicate. 

“Additionally, dog feces were discovered in the bed Zachary, Nicole, and (Victim 1) slept in,” said the complaint. “Upon further examination the dog feces were not fresh and have been there for a long duration of time.”
