Sunday School Teacher Accused of Selling Crack Cocaine

(Magnolia, Texas) A 60-year-old disabled Sunday school teacher, Beatrice Charles, was arrested this week for allegedly selling cocaine to an undercover officer.

Charles (maiden name Ramirez) has been charged with first-degree felony delivery of a controlled substance.

The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office Special Investigation Unit began an investigation following numerous complaints from Charles' neighbors about activity at her wood-frame single-family home in the 24000 block of Zhan Street, according to Sgt. David Womack, who said neighbors reported frequent short-time visits by numerous people.

After the alleged sale to an undercover officer, investigators obtained a search warrant for the residence.

Charles was home when the warrant was served, Womack said.

"We recovered more than four but less than 200 grams of cocaine that was separated into approximately 40 baggies for sale," he said. "We also recovered digital scales and other paraphernalia along with nine weapons."

The weapons consisted of three semi-automatic handguns and six hunting rifles.

Charles was booked into custody at the Montgomery County Jail with bail set at $75,000.
