State Police said three people were arrested Tuesday morning including a grandmother for allegedly dealing and for exposing her grandchildren to methamphetamine-making chemicals in Hurricane.
Troopers said they raided the trailer of Jonda Grandoni at 4 a.m. Court documents allege she admitted to being a meth addict for 20 years and that she sells it to close friends. She was arrested on seven drug and meth-related charges.
State Police said the home was full of meth-making materials. Her boyfriend, Dale Burford of Rock Branch, and Kira Harrold of Poca were charged with operating a clandestine lab, possession of meth with intent to deliver and conspiracy.
The children ages 2 and 6 were in the home when troopers arrived. They were released to the custody of their mother.
