SMUGGLING DRUGS INTO JAIL

GRAFTON - A Cleveland Heights woman was scheduled to appear in Elyria Municipal Court today on a felony charge after she was found attempting to convey marijuana into the Lorain Correctional Institution yesterday.

Troopers said Quaina Cole, 27, was charged with conveying drugs into a correctional facility, a third-degree felony.

Troopers and Department of Rehabilitation and Correction investigators developed information that Cole might attempt to deliver drugs into the Lorain Correctional Institution. She was observed passing the drugs to an inmate during her visit and was taken into custody. Troopers recovered six balloons containing three grams of marijuana.


Cole was incarcerated at the Lorain County Jail. If convicted, she could face up to five years in prison and a $10,000 fine.

The Ohio State Highway Patrol investigates criminal activity on state owned and leased property.
