I found someone with the name Amber M. Gordon (which came up when I searcjhed the last name Drury in the judicial database) with court records going back to 2005 in MO. The most recent charge was a drug possession for which they were sentenced to 4 years, starting in 2018. Another infraction prior to that in 2018 listed defendants address as "homeless". I couldn't find any more recent address under Drury or Gordon. There are some civil court records under the name Cates but it's not the same person as the DOB is for someone much younger. https://www.courts.mo.gov/casenet/nameSearchEntry.do

Wonder what she was doing in Ozark and how she got there if she's truly homeless? It's almost 4 hours away from Charleston/East Prairie. Map Link

Ozark is a smaller town to the southeast of Springfield. It has a population of just over 21,000 according to the 2020 census.

@GraceG noting of her being homeless in East Prairie makes sense as it is only 14 minutes by car from Charleston. Map Link
