Johnston, 42, was arrested Thursday at her home with a search warrant as part of an undercover drug investigation by Alaska State troopers. A spokeswoman for the troopers said in a statement late Friday afternoon that the charges "are in relation to the drug Oxycontin." She reportedly was released on a $5,000 unsecured bond just after 2 p.m.
A rep for Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, mother of Bristol, said Thursday: "This is not a state government matter. Therefore the governor's communications staff will not be providing comment or scheduling interview opportunities."
Hey, I can't blame her. I wouldn't want to comment on it either. That family has been giving the Palin's a bit of trouble, don't you think? Palin's daughter Bristol, 18, is nine months pregnant and had been due to give birth on Dec. 20th, that baby is right around the corner!
