COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)
A woman who was accused of soliciting prostitution from an undercover police officer was allegedly found with 29 grams of fentanyl in July.
Amy Hill, 47, of Columbia, was charged on Thursday in Boone County with second-degree drug trafficking, misdemeanor prostitution, two counts of felony drug possession and a single count of delivery of a controlled substance. She is being held at the Boone County Jail without bond. A court date has not been scheduled.
Two probable cause statements were filed in the case. The first document says an undercover Columbia police officer found a website on July 24 where Hill allegedly advertised “adult services,” for a listed price.
The officer allegedly contacted Hill with a phone number that was listed on the website to set up a meeting at an Airbnb, the statement says. The officer met Hill in the 800 block of East Broadway in downtown Columbia and discussed a price, documents say. The officer allegedly asked if he could pay a larger amount than the originally listed price, court documents say.
She was then taken into custody and was allegedly found with 29 grams of fentanyl and about a gram of methamphetamine in her purse, the statement says. The DEA’s website says 2 milligrams can be a lethal dose.
A second probable cause statement says the Boone County Sheriff’s Office served a search warrant at a motel room on Business Loop 70 on Sept. 9, which was occupied by Hill. Law enforcement allegedly found 29 grams of meth and 4 grams of cocaine, along with a scale and baggies, the statement says.
