Fourteen female inmates in the Franklin County Regional Jail tested positive for methamphetamine after one inmate allegedly hid the drugs in her genitals before her arrest and dispersed them.

Last week, a Franklin County grand jury indicted Tiffany Green, 32, on charges of possession of heroin and methamphetamine stemming from her arrest at Fairfield Inn near Versailles Road. According to court documents, Green allegedly still had enough methamphetamine concealed in her body after her incarceration to share with 13 inmates in a 20-woman pod.

“One of the defendants, Christina Alves, was seven months pregnant and was being cared for, had medical appointments, and during the course of that it was discovered she had methamphetamine inside her body,” Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Zach Becker said. “It was removed. The jail staff was notified. She then gave a Mirandized statement saying she had used that methamphetamine, had given it to other inmates and received it from Ms. Green.”

An investigation was launched, resulting in 14 of the 20 female inmates in one pod testing positive for methamphetamine. According to Becker, “because of the time of the month it was, she (Green) could no longer store it herself, so she divided it up” among three other inmates who allegedly dispersed the drug among those in the pod. According to the indictment, the four inmates dispersed the meth between Dec. 30, 2016 and Jan. 3, 2017.
