Morongo Basin Jail (SBCounty.Gov)

Two women were arrested Thursday night after police say they tried to sneak meth into the Morongo Basin Jail in Joshua Tree.

Amy Simms, 43, and 59-year-old Alisa Henderson, both from Yucca Valley, were spotted by a deputy allegedly passing a coffee stirrer full of meth to 34-year-old inmate Brian Godden, reports KESQ.

According to a press release, Simms had attempted to pass the stirrer through the visiting room’s security glass.

Deputies searched the women and found more meth-filled straws in Simms’ possession.

They were both arrested on charges of conspiracy to commit a felony and for bringing narcotics into a jail facility. Godden was also charged.
