breaking news : Brett Favre's sister reportedly arrested in drug bust

The younger sister of football great Brett Favre was arrested Wednesday, along with four others, at the site of a meth lab in Diamondhead.

Hancock County narcotics agents discovered the active meth lab inside a condo unit in the heart of the normally quiet, upscale community. And while the discovery may be a surprise to many, it wasn't to neighbors.Investigators arrested Brandi Favre and four others after Hancock County narcotics officers discovered the active meth lab in a condo complex in Diamondhead, Miss., according to the Biloxi Sun Herald. The five were taken to a hospital for decontamination and then booked.

"She was here, at the wrong place at the wrong time," Maj. Matt Karl, director of narcotics for Hancock County, told the newspaper.

Narcotics officers were still on scene investigating Wednesday night. They reportedly found methamphetamine cooking in the bathtub along with nine grams of the drug, worth about $150 on the street.



The site of the lab is less than 10 miles from Kiln, where Brett Favre and his siblings were raised. Favre currently lives about 85 miles north of Diamondhead on a ranch in Hattiesburg, Miss. "In the past two or three years, I think this is about our fifth one we got in Diamondhead. I mean, you don't think about that," Karl said. "Meth labs in Diamondhead. Yes, they are here. And we're working on them, and we're going to get them out of here."

Those arrested include Brandi Favre, David Logan, Marty Grimes, Alesha Kirkland and Carl Wynn, III. All are charged with manufacturing of meth, possession of a controlled substance, transferring a controlled substance and generation of hazardous waste.
