href=\"https:\/\/trfnews.i234.me\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 Jaysen David Miller, 36, faces two felony drug charges after a June 15 probation search.<\/p>\n<p>The search occurred at Miller\u2019s apartment on LaBree Avenue North in Thief River Falls.<\/p>\n<p>The charges include a meth-related crime involving children and fifth-degree controlled substance possession.<\/p>\n<p>The second count alleges possession of more than 0.25 grams of a controlled substance.<\/p>\n<p>The report said Miller was already jailed when investigators planned the apartment search.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities reported that his earlier behavior appeared linked to possible drug-related paranoia.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators obtained Miller\u2019s permission to search the apartment without him present.<\/p>\n<p>Miller allegedly directed them to a fruit box inside his bedroom.<\/p>\n<p>He reportedly said the box contained suspected methamphetamine and a hypodermic needle.<\/p>\n<h2>Suspected Meth Found in Bedroom<\/h2>\n<p>Investigators from county and city agencies searched the apartment with a police dog.<\/p>\n<p>They reportedly found the fruit box and the items Miller had described.<\/p>\n<p>The bag allegedly contained suspected methamphetamine and weighed 1.1 grams with packaging and tape.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators also reported finding several plastic bags containing a white powdery residue.<\/p>\n<p>The supplied report does not say whether laboratory testing confirmed the substance.<\/p>\n<p>It also does not provide the net weight after removing the packaging and tape.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"text-align: center; margin: 25px auto;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"display: block; width: 100%; max-width:

according to the report.<\/p>\n<p>Both businesses serve children and adults.<\/p>\n<p>However, the supplied information does not explain how that location supports the child-related charge.<\/p>\n<h2>Charges Remain Pending<\/h2>\n<p>The source material said Miller remained in custody when the report was prepared.<\/p>\n<p>No bail amount, hearing date, or plea was included in the information provided.<\/p>\n<p>The report also did not identify any child connected to the case.<\/p>\n<p>No police officer names are included in this story.<\/p>\n<p>Minnesota law addresses methamphetamine-related crimes involving children and vulnerable adults.<\/p>\n<p>It also defines fifth-degree controlled substance offenses and possible penalties.<\/p>\n<p>Readers can review <a
