Four Busted After Agents Find Active Meth Lab
August 22, 2012
Four people, including a former Century resident, were arrested in Escambia County, Ala., after officers found an active meth lab in a mobile home.
Sandra Watson, 38; Josh McCormick, 26; Sena Daw, 22; and Karissa Carroll, 19 were all charged with unlawful possession of a controlled substance, unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia and manufacturing of a controlled substance. All listed a current address in Brewton. According to Escambia County, Fla., jail records, Daw is a former resident of Century.
Agents from the 21st Judicial Drug Task Force received a tip that an individual was making multiple purchases of pseudoephedrine, a common ingredient used in the meth making process. Agents responded to the residence on Highway 31 in Brewton where the they entered the home with a resident and discovered the components of a meth lab. The residence was evacuated, and a search warrant was obtained for the home.
When the search warrant was executed, agents found what they believed to be an active meth lab with about $1,000 worth of crystal methamphetamine.
All four suspects remained in the Escambia County (Ala.) Detention Center Tuesday afternoon awaiting a bond hearing.

Please everyone keep Sandy & her daughter Karissa, in ya’lls prayers. JESUS, KEEP SANDY & KARISSA SAFE & HELP THEM TO KNOW THEY HAVE PEOPLE THAT LOVE THEM & WILL HELP THEM AS MUCH AS WE CAN.

Four more off the streets…hopefully, for a long time.
Where’s HazMat Mel when you need him?
A True Professional, He Doesn’t Play.
the one named sandra watson is sandie or sandra walston or carroll n karrissa carroll is her daughter ….very sad story ,,,
Addition in this country needs to be treated along with punishment of the crime. Until you have gone through withdrawal of any kind you have no idea what your talking about. Meth is a horrible drug that is harming many people. but jail time without counseling is worthless.
There is no better form of drug rehab than prison – excellent for detoxing your body! Good job to the Sheriff’s Department for getting more meth heads/manufacturers off the street! The comments on this article mark the first time I’ve ever heard the words “meth” and “non-violent” used together. Meth is a disease in our society that must be eradicated! I’m all for stiff penalties for people who manufacture and/or distribute. I agree that they are sick, but everyone knows the consequences!
You can’t fix stupid!!!!
Henry Coe, “non-violent offence”? Do you know what happens when a meth lab blows up? They were putting more than their own lives at risk. I do, however, hope they get the help they need.
For those of you that saw the name Sandra Watson and gasped, please note the age and photograph, this is a different Sandra Watson, of no relation to our Sandra, who goes by her husbands name.
wow , nic pictures ..seen they r mad , but u cant fix stupid ..sandra walston was rised in century, lost her mind in jay when she meet josh , but she and all them r growned so they knew they were doing wrong ,,
@hmmm
No, really they don’t look good in orange. No one looks good in orange for a non-violent drug offense. They just look sick, which they are. If they don’t get help, they will just be wasting our tax dollars only to get released and end up going back to using Meth.
The more desperate they get as Meth users and repeat offenders over time, will likely increase the risk of them becoming violent depending on how desperate they get, but hopefully they haven’t been using very long and hopefully they will realize this is a big wake up call to not miss out on the rest of their lives, but they need help in order to get off this path of destruction & death that they are on. Just sayin’.
While they look like criminals now, they are also someone’s kid or sibling or parent. Jail might help them with getting clean, but jail by definition won’t keep them clean.
Good job.
It would be great if y’all could show pictures of what these folks looked like before they started using this horrible drug.
I’ve seen programs on what Meth does to people over time and each individual looks like they are alive and decomposing at the same time. People need to see the before and after pictures. Hopefully that will detour someone from ever trying that drug and destroy their life while leaving a trail of damage for the lives of others.
They sure don’t look too happy, but orange looks pretty good on them.
