A Campbellsville resident has been charged with selling drugs in an indictment recently unsealed by a Taylor Circuit Court judge.

A grand jury may seal an indictment if there is a possibility that the accused will try to evade police.

Gretchen Edwards, 20, of 35 Anna Court was charged with second-degree selling buprenorphine.

Bond was set at $10,000 cash. If convicted, Edwards could be sentenced to as much as five years in prison.
