Back around the middle of February police in Pollok, Texas showed up at the trailer belonging to 30-year-old Jesse Self in order to talk to him about a stolen handgun. The took along a narcotics officer since it was suspected that he had a meth lab going on there as well.

When they arrived at the trailer Self shares with his girlfriend, 29-year-old Amber Weatherly, and her two children, they couldn’t get anyone to answer the door and heard sounds of people moving around and flushing toilets. Police forced entry into the home and after searching the home arrested Weatherly and Self.

A meth lab was set up in a smaller trailer behind the mobile home, right next to the children’s playhouse and across the street from the Kids Inc. Learning Center.

CPS removed all four of the chidlren from Weatherly’s care and two of them tested positive for meth from being in contact with it.  Weatherly was charged with Child Endangerment and Possession of Certain Chemicals With Intent to Manufacture while Self was charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance.

The children are now in the custody of a relative.
