NEW CASTLE, Ind. — A Dearborn County woman is accused of bringing drugs into the New Castle Correctional Facility with the intention of giving them to an inmate.
Samantha Meyer-Bruner, 36, of Aurora, Ind., is accused of bringing a package of meth into the prison Jan. 10 when visiting an inmate, said the Indiana Department of Correction.
Jail officers found the meth and Meyer-Bruner was arrested. She faces preliminary charges of trafficking with an inmate, dealing methamphetamine, and conspiracy of dealing methamphetamine.
