Irondale, Mo – The mayor of the small Washington County town of Irondale faces methamphetamine charges after her arrest last week.
Deputies say they went to Jennifer Hamelback's home to investigate another person who lives there. But they say they then uncovered evidence that both were in possession of meth.
Hamelback, 29, is still the town's mayor until the case is resolved.
Jeffery Thurman Irondale was also arrested. A call to their home was not returned.
