LANSING, Kan. (AP) - A Lansing prison worker has pleaded no contest to smuggling methamphetamine.
The Kansas City Star reports that prosecutors announced Wednesday that 60-year-old Jacqueline Doty, of Fort Scott, had entered a plea in the case.
Court documents say she was arrested in June 2014 after she was searched at the Lansing Correctional Facility and found to be carrying about 14 bags containing meth.
Prosecutors said the bags were hidden in a "girdle-type undergarment" Doty was wearing, with large bandages wrapped around her midsection to hide them. One of the bags held about 14 grams of meth.
Doty told investigators that she had brought drugs into the prison on multiple occasions.
