In February 2020, she was arrested on driving after revocation or suspension, meth possession, and sales to felons-handgun charges in Merrimack.

At the time, St. John was arrested with Philip Wetmore, last week’s fugitive of the week, outside of a hotel on the Daniel Webster Highway. According to police, while on a business check patrol, a woman was seen stepping in front of a vehicle, preventing it from leaving the hotel parking lot. The officer spoke with both Wetmore and St. John, reportedly found a 9 mm handgun as well as meth, heroin, and prescription pills, and they both were arrested. Police in Merrimack accused St. John of admitting that the handgun was hers and she had just bought it, according to a report. Court records show that the charges were nolle prossed in September 2020.

On Sept. 1, 2020, St. John was charged again with 11 drug possession charges out of Merrimack. The charges were nolle prossed on Feb. 8.

The task force has put an “armed and dangerous” and "known to abuse drugs" warnings on her fugitive alert. Anyone who knows where St. John is or sees someone who looks like her should not try to apprehend her. Instead, call local police or 603-225-1632.
