Barr was charged with fifth-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, a Class D felony, and fourth-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance, a Class C felony. She was sent to the St. Lawrence County Correctional Facility pending arraignment.

Miller was charged with one count of fifth-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance, a Class D felony, and two counts of fourth-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance, a Class C felony. She was remanded to the St. Lawrence County Correctional Facility pending arraignment.
