Drugs, theft, endangerment of children and repeatedly putting others at risk by driving while intoxicated are a few of the allegations put forward by the Russell County Grand Jury this week.

As recorded by the Circuit Clerk's Office, here are the indictments.

Julie Rikard, 30; Michelle Jackson, 40 and Dustin Dufran, 20 were each charged with manufacturing methamphetamine and controlled substance endangerment to a child. Rikard is also accused of being a persistent felony offender.

The Times Journal reminds its readers that a grand jury indictment is not proof of guilt, but the judgment by its members that enough evidence exists in a case to warrant a trial.
