href=\"https:\/\/trfnews.i234.me\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">trfnews.i234.me<\/a>)<\/strong> \u2013 A 41-year-old Thief River Falls woman faces two felony drug charges following a search of her residence near Northrup Park.<\/p>\n<p>Christine Rae Good is accused of possessing methamphetamine within a park zone and storing methamphetamine-related items where a child lived.<\/p>\n<p>According to a Pennington County criminal complaint, investigators discovered suspected methamphetamine, smoking devices, scales, and drug packaging materials.<\/p>\n<p>The search occurred October 2, 2026, at a residence on Horace Avenue North.<\/p>\n<h2>Investigation Begins With Pizza Ranch Theft Case<\/h2>\n<p>Investigators initially obtained a search warrant while reviewing a separate Pizza Ranch theft investigation.<\/p>\n<p>According to court documents, police also reviewed previous calls involving Good&#8217;s residence.<\/p>\n<p>A judge approved the first search warrant around 11:15 a.m. on October 2.<\/p>\n<p>Officers arrived at the home approximately 16 minutes later.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators knocked repeatedly and announced they had a search warrant.<\/p>\n<p>After receiving no response, officers entered and searched the residence.<\/p>\n<p>No one was inside when police entered.<\/p>\n<h2>Suspected Methamphetamine Found During Search<\/h2>\n<p>While documenting the residence, investigators discovered a black container near a bed.<\/p>\n<p>According to the complaint, the container featured a skull design with pink coloring.<\/p>\n<p>Inside, officers discovered several small plastic bags.<\/p>\n<p>One bag contained white residue that tested presumptively positive for methamphetamine.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators stopped their search for drugs and obtained an additional warrant.<\/p>\n<p>The second search warrant was approved around 1:12 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>Police then resumed searching for controlled substances and related evidence.<\/p>\n<h2>Police Discover Pipes, Scales, and Suspected Drugs<\/h2>\n<p>Investigators reported discovering several items inside the bedroom believed to be used by Good.<\/p>\n<p>Those included glass smoking pipes, plastic bags, scales, and containers with suspected drug residue.<\/p>\n<p>A purple glass pipe was reportedly sitting openly on a bedside table.<\/p>\n<p>Officers also found a lockbox containing a wooden container labeled &#8220;Booty Bank.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Inside the wooden box, investigators discovered three glass pipes with residue.<\/p>\n<p>Several items reportedly tested presumptively positive for methamphetamine.<\/p>\n<p>Police also discovered a small plastic bag containing a crystalline substance on a bedroom shelf.<\/p>\n<p>According to the complaint, that material weighed approximately 0.4 grams, including its packaging.<\/p>\n<p>The weight was measured using an uncertified scale.<\/p>\n<p>Additional suspected drug paraphernalia was discovered in the kitchen.<\/p>\n<h2>Child Reportedly Lived at Residence<\/h2>\n<p>The criminal complaint also raised concerns about a child living inside the home.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators observed a separate bedroom containing children&#8217;s clothing, toys, and other personal belongings.<\/p>\n<p>Police reviewed a previous welfare check conducted September 28, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>That earlier call involved allegations that methamphetamine was being left where a child could access it.<\/p>\n<p>According to the complaint, Good confirmed she lived at the residence with her child and boyfriend, Michael Loiland.<\/p>\n<p>Both Good and Loiland reportedly denied using methamphetamine.<\/p>\n<p>They suggested former roommates were responsible for the suspected drugs.<\/p>\n<p>Following the October 2 search, investigators discussed requesting a temporary protective hold for the child.<\/p>\n<p>The complaint does not confirm whether that hold was ultimately approved.<\/p>\n<h2>Residence Located Near Northrup Park<\/h2>\n<p>Investigators also examined the home&#8217;s location in relation to Northrup Park.<\/p>\n<p>According to the complaint, the park is adjacent to the residence.<\/p>\n<p>An investigator measured the distance using Google Maps and reported approximately 227 feet.<\/p>\n<p>That location is relevant to the third-degree controlled substance charge involving a park zone.<\/p>\n<p>The complaint does not allege that drugs were being sold or distributed inside the park itself.<\/p>\n<h2>Two Felony Drug Charges Filed<\/h2>\n<p>Prosecutors filed two felony charges against Christine Rae Good.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Count I: Third-Degree Controlled Substance Possession<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Good is accused of possessing methamphetamine within a designated park zone.<\/p>\n<p>The charge falls under Minnesota Statute 152.023, subdivision 2(a)(6).<\/p>\n<p>A conviction could carry up to 20 years in prison, a $250,000 fine, or both.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Count II: Methamphetamine-Related Crime Involving Children<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Prosecutors allege Good stored methamphetamine and related paraphernalia where a child was present.<\/p>\n<p>This felony carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison, a $10,000 fine, or both.<\/p>\n<p>These are maximum statutory penalties, not sentences imposed by the court.<\/p>\n<p>More information is available through

number is 57-CR-26-699.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecutor&#8217;s file number is 57-1870.<\/p>\n<p>The complaint includes an order of detention but does not establish Good&#8217;s current custody
