Mother Of Sarah Palin’s Grandkid’s Father Arrested On Drug Charges
So, of course, this is headline news.
WASILLA — A 42-year-old Wasilla woman was arrested Thursday at her home by Alaska State Troopers with a search warrant in an undercover drug investigation. Sherry L. Johnston was charged with six felony counts of misconduct involving a controlled substance.
Johnston is the mother of Levi Johnston, the Wasilla 18-year-old who received international attention in September when Gov. Sarah Palin and her husband, Todd, announced their teenage daughter was pregnant and he was the father. Bristol Palin, 18, is due on Saturday, according to a recent interview with the governor’s father, Chuck Heath.
Troopers served the warrant at Johnston’s home at the “conclusion of an undercover narcotics investigation,” said a statement issued Thursday by the troopers as part of the normal daily summary of activity around the state.
I believe Levi and Bristol’s baby is due tomorrow, so this is a pretty sad story. Let’s hope that, after getting her due process and just punishment under the law, Sherry Johnson finds the help she needs.
That being said, how sad is it that this is news because of her tenuous relationship to Sarah Palin? Johnson’s arrest implies nothing about Sarah Palin, her political career or her family.
Discussion question: How much do you want to bet the media/left makes a bigger deal out of this than Sarah’s church getting torched?
