Pregnant Woman Arrested for Meth

He also said Knight was pregnant and that she had been using meth. At that point, Lawrence County Drug Endangered Child Unit investigators got involved in the investigation.

Knight confessed to using meth while pregnant, which led investigators to charge her with chemical endangerment of a child. She is also charged with unlawful manufacturing a controlled substance second degree and possession of a controlled substance.
