GILLETTE, WY. (AP) — A 23-year-old woman has pleaded guilty to taking meth into a Wyoming jail where she gave it to others in custody.

The Gillette News Record reports that Hallie M. Stratton pleaded guilty to taking drugs into jail and to delivery of meth in a plea agreement with prosecutors in Campbell County.

Authorities say Stratton hid the meth in her body when she was taken to jail April 19 and booked for misdemeanor possession of marijuana and meth.

They say she gave the meth to other women who were incarcerated for drug crimes. Authorities say four others in the jail subsequently tested positive for meth use.
