Chelsea, 27, was jailed in Wisconsin after police carried out a search warrant last month, according to court records viewed by multiple outlets. She was first booked in Marinette County on September 10, where her Amberg home is located, and released later that month after posting a $2,000 bond, jail records show.

According to court documents, Chelsea was charged with multiple felony counts of neglecting a child, possession of methamphetamine and maintaining a drug trafficking place. She was also charged with four misdemeanors, including possession of THC, drug paraphernalia and illegally obtained prescription drugs, as well as disorderly conduct.

The mother of four was later booked into Oconto County Jail on October 11, and is still in custody. She now faces felony counts of possession of methamphetamine, possession of narcotic drugs and bail jumping, plus misdemeanor counts of resisting or obstructing an officer and possession of drug paraphernalia, according to jail records.

She is due to appear in court on November 4 and November 7.
