The informant said the officers complained about the quality of the drugs they were purchasing.

/Gray News) - An arrest affidavit sheds new light on the arrests of Payne Springs’ police chief and a police officer after both were arrested on drug charges on Thursday.

Meadows and Hutchison have each been arrested on charges of delivery of a controlled substance and money laundering. Hutchison and Meadows’ bond amounts are $1.5 million for each charge. In 2022, Hutchison and Meadows asked if the informant would begin making methamphetamine purchases, the affidavit stated. The informant told investigators it was at this time that Meadows became much more involved in coordinating the purchases.

The informant said that payment for their services was rendered in cash, though the affidavit states that sometimes Meadows and Hutchison would pay them via CashApp or even provide an amount of marijuana as payment. The informant said marijuana as payment seemed odd, but it was allegedly explained to them that marijuana was now legal.
