Child Cruelty Charges Filed Following Armuchee Drug Investigation

Local News, Local News Items #ArmucheeGA, #ChattoogaInfo, #ChildCruelty, #CrimeNews, #CrueltyToChildren, #DrugInvestigation, #FloydCounty, #floydcountyga, #FloydCountyJail, #Methamphetamine, #MethTrafficking, #NorthGeorgiaNews, #northwestgeorgia, #RomeGA, #SearchWarrant, #TurkeyMountainRoad, #WZQZ, #wzqznews 0

Two people already jailed on methamphetamine trafficking charges are now facing additional charges after authorities say a 2-year-old child was found living in unsafe conditions at an Armuchee-area residence.

According to Floyd County Jail records, the new charges stem from the execution of a search warrant on September 4 at a home on Turkey Mountain Road.

Investigators say the child was living inside a bug-infested residence where methamphetamine was within reach. Authorities allege the conditions inside the home were so unhealthy that they caused physical and mental pain to the child.

45-year-old Roland Jovan Johnson and 27-year-old Marissa Shaye Cannon are each charged with second-degree cruelty to children.

Both Johnson and Cannon were already being held in jail following their earlier arrests in connection with the Turkey Mountain Road investigation.

They had previously been booked on charges including trafficking methamphetamine and possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute.

The additional child cruelty charges were filed after investigators reviewed the conditions found inside the residence during the September 4 search
