    At the time, authorities were first called after Amy , 36, claimed that a camel had bitten her at West Tennesse Safari Park.

    Once police arrived, they encountered an overwhelming smell once they were close enough to Amy and Brian’s car.

    In arrest warrants exclusively obtained by The U.S. Sun, Amy was booked for having magic mushrooms and 80 grams of marijuana in the vehicle.

    While at the zoo, two children under the age of 8 were also present when Amy and Brian were arrested.

    The two kids were picked up by a relative at the time of the arrest.

    The two were charged with illegal possession of Schedule I, illegal possession of Schedule IV, and two counts of child endangerment.

    One day after their arrest, Amy and Brian walked hand-in-hand while leaving jail.

    The U.S. Sun can confirm that Amy has a court date and will be arraigned on the charges on September 5.

    NO CAMEL BITES HERE

    In a photo obtained by TMZ , Amy was photographed looking in pain while lying on a gurney with a product around her arm.

    Witnesses told the news outlet that she used a T-shirt around her arm.

    However, Jon Conley, co-owner of the zoo, told TMZ that there was no security footage of the incident and no one had ever been bitten by a camel on the property.

    In a statement to The U.S. Sun , co-owner Claude Conley said, “We dispute that Amy was bitten by a camel because there is no bruising.

    “She cut her arm on something, it’s not consistent with an animal bite.

    “Her boyfriend or the man she was with was acting crazy, screaming and yelling and all kinds of stuff.

    He got mad that the police came out there because he just wanted the ambulance to come,” Claude said.

    ‘I WAS ROOTING FOR YOU!’

    SISTER’S RESPONSE

    Fans weren’t the only ones seemingly reacting to the arrest news.

    Amy’s sister, Amanda Halterman, reshared a cryptic message on her Facebook.

    In a 2019 post, a message was shared on the Midnight Mom Devotional Facebook group where they were praying for “momma.”

    “Tonight we pray for the momma who needs to know it’s all going to be okay.

    “Lord, she has so many situations where she needs You to intervene, but she has one thing that often comes to the surface of her heart and causes her to question if it really is going to be alright,” the post read.

    While Amanda has remained close with her two sisters Amy and Tammy and made her first appearance on 1000-Lb. Sisters during Season 4.
