Barbourville Police arrested a Bell County woman just after noon on June 25. They would soon be called back to the Knox County Detention Center after a discovery by Deputy Jailers.
34-year-old Sabrina Dixon of Pineville was arrested on a Bell County bench warrant for failing to appear for a May 2021 arraignment. Officers Chase Henson and Josh Lawson transported Dixon to the detention center where Deputy Jailer Thomas Levering asked Dixon if she had anything illegal on her person before entering and to hand it over if she did. At around 1:10 p.m. the officers received a call from the detention center that Dixon had been caught with suspected meth.
