A sniffer dog at Ohio’s Hamilton County jail hit on a heroin-laced bible mailed by a woman to an inmate
Ohio’s Hamilton County Justice Center uses a sniffer dog to detect drugs that may have been smuggled to the jail’s inmates. Last month the dog detected a heroin-laced bible that had been mailed to inmate Timothy King by a woman, Tehani Teepe.
The heroin was disguised as a half-dollar sized coffee stain on the ‘Book of Daniel’ title page (p. 420) of the bible. Lab tests revealed that the stain contained between 30 and 40 hits of heroin. If King had taken all of it at once, he probably would have croaked.
Teepe and King have been charged with illegal conveyance of contraband into a correction facility, a third-degree felony punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine up to $10,000.
