Nadia Lockyer, the estranged wife of state Treasurer Bill Lockyer and a former Alameda County supervisor, was arrested in Orange County, Calif., on Aug. 28, 2012, after police found her with methamphetamine in a home where she was staying with her 9-year-old son. According to officials, the 41-year-old was charged with drug possession and child abuse. The charges are the latest in a series of public substance abuse and relationship struggles faced by Lockyer who until recently was considered a rising star in Northern California government. She is seen here in this undated personal photo.
