- Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance in the 5th Degree (Felony)
- Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance in the 7th Degree (Misdemeanor)
- Failure to Keep Right (Traffic Violation)
She was taken to the Seneca County Correctional Facility, where she awaits arraignment. Dove is scheduled to appear in Fayette Town Court at a later date
