The Hodgenville Police Department has released details on several cases their officers investigated last week.

On April 1, HPD officers conducted several controlled buy attempts of vapes to underage informants. In these investigations, underage informants go into a store and attempt to purchase vapes or vape products. Jennifer Timmer, a clerk at the Hometown Mini Mart on Lincoln Farm Road, was charged with Unlawful Transaction with a Minor.

Hodgenville Police Chief James Richardson said it was worth noting that the store in this case has taken actions to prevent underage sales.

“The store went back and put in a fail-safe in the computer where the register will not let you make that purchase without scanning their driver’s license, and something the store did on their own, they were not mandated to do that,” Richardson said. “That’s just what they did, and in this instance the clerk actually scanned her own driver’s license to bypass that fail-safe to sell that product to the child.”

Later, on April 3, the HPD’s search for a fugitive led to two arrests.

Officers had been searching for Jeremy Butler for about a week as he was wanted on warrants for several drug-related charges. The investigation led officers to an address on Joe Brown Road

“We got a tip to where he was at,” Richardson said. “We went to that address, knocked on the door. The young man that rented that residence allowed us in and Mr. Butler was located inside that home, and then there was another female that was on scene and when we checked her she also came back with a child support warrant for a $2,000 warrant out of Hardin County for being behind on her child support, so she was located and arrested as well.”

The woman arrested is Savannah Moreland of Maryland. Both Moreland and Butler were transported to the LaRue County Detention Center at the time of their arrests.
