Meth Found in Cheyenne Transient’s Underwear During Strip Search

A 29-year-old Cheyenne transient is facing felony drug charges after a trespass call reportedly led to drug paraphernalia and 11 bags of methamphetamine.

According to a booking sheet, police were called to Holliday Park shortly after 11 a.m. on Tuesday, April 16, after it was reported that transients were inside the men's bathroom blocking the door.

Trespass Call Leads to Felony Drug Arrest

Upon arrival, police contacted Seth Andrew Williams, who they say refused to comply with orders to come out of the bathroom.

Williams was subsequently arrested and he and his belongings were searched, reportedly resulting in the seizure of a digital scale, packages of unused jewelry bags, and six $20 bills.

During a strip search at the jail, police say approximately 6.21 grams of methamphetamine packaged in 11 separate smaller jewelry bags and a glass pipe containing suspected methamphetamine residue were found in Williams' underwear.

Williams was booked on charges of manufacture or delivery of methamphetamine, a felony punishable by up to 20 years in prison, up to a $25,000 fine, or both; taking controlled substances or liquor into jails, penal institutions, or mental hospitals, a felony punishable by up to three years in prison, up to a $3,000 fine, or both; and misdemeanor interference with a peace officer - no injury.
