Kelly Stone, 30, also known as Kelly McGill, was released from jail after prosecutors did not approve charges within 48 hours of her arrest.
The other individual arrested, Donte Shackelford, 31, was charged with having weapons under disability after he was found to be in possession of a stolen gun, the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office said.
UPDATE @ 12:14 p.m. (Aug. 26): Huber Heights school Superintendent Susan Gunnell said late Friday morning that the district was just hearing details of a teacher's drug arrest. But she confirmed that the Kelly Stone arrested in the Kettering raid is the Huber Heights teacher listed as Kelly McGill.
She said she wasn’t aware of any complaints against Stone, who had just started her second year with the district.
“It’s highly unfortunate. When we get this information we take it very seriously and put our steps in motion,” Gunnell said. “First and foremost, who we want in front of our children are people who are able to make good decisions and follow rules and guidelines.”
