Two Libby residents accused of trafficking methamphetamine in Libby appeared in Lincoln County District Court last week and pleaded not guilty to the offenses.

Rochelle Denise Styles, 44, is charged with three felony counts of transferring illegal articles (dangerous drugs), criminal distribution of dangerous drugs and a misdemeanor count of criminal possession of drug paraphernalia.

She appeared with her public defender, Scott B. Johnson, and entered her pleas on Monday, Jan. 8. Johnson told District Judge Matt Cuffe that he could not represent Styles following the arraignment because a conflict had been identified.
