Klawock City Council member facing felony drug charges

KETCHIKAN — A Klawock City Council member has been indicted on felony drug charges, including an allegation of methamphetamine possession.

The Ketchikan Daily News reports 35-year-old Sabrina Demmert was indicted Friday by a Craig grand jury.

There is no telephone listing for Demmert in Klawock, and she could not be reached for comment Wednesday. Online court records don't list a defense attorney on the case.

The charges are misconduct involving a controlled substance and conspiracy to commit misconduct involving a controlled substance. One of the three counts alleges that Demmert possessed methamphetamine last March.

Klawock city administrator Leslie Isaacs confirmed to the newspaper Tuesday that Demmert is a council member. But he declined to comment further until more information is available.

Isaacs didn't immediately return a call for comment Wednesday.
