Levi Johnston -- the shotgun-marrying dad of Bristol Palin, Sarah's daughter -- has more on his mind than his upcoming son.
Turns out Alaska State Troopers visited his mother Sherry L. Johnston, of Wasilla, with a search warrant as part of an undercover drug investigation. By the time it was done, the 42 year-old was charged with second-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance -- read: manufacturing or peddling drugs -- as well as fourth-degree misconduct involving controlled substances, i.e., possession.

Ms. Johnston was arrested at approximately noon and booked at Mat-Su Pretrial Facility. She was released on a $5,000 unsecured bond 2 hours later.
