The sheriff’s office, Texas Rangers and the Attorney General’s Office were following up on a lead on a 2009 missing person case at a residence outside of Athens on U.S. Highway 175 West. While they were conducting the investigation, they spotted suspected drug paraphernalia, marijuana and methamphetamine and notified a narcotics investigator to come to the house. 

Clifford Keith Miller, 55, was arrested at the house for possession of a controlled substance in penalty group 1 amounting to 4 grams but less than 200 grams, a second-degree felony, possession of 2 ounces or less of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. 

No new information was discovered in the missing person case.
