A 26-year-old Hilo woman is facing meth trafficking and other drug-related charges.

Rebecca Mossman-King made her initial appearance Wednesday in Hilo District Court.

Police say they recovered 26.1 grams of crystal methamphetamine along with paraphernalia associated with the consumption and distribution of meth on Monday after serving a search warrant on her residence in the 300 block of Hilinai Street.

Mossman-King was charged with first-degree meth trafficking, two counts of promoting a dangerous drug and two counts of possessing drug paraphernalia.

According to court records, Hilo District Judge Harry Freitas maintained Mossman-King’s bail at $305,000 and ordered her to return for a preliminary hearing Thursday at 2 p.m.
