“Tennessee prison officials have charged a Chattanooga woman with smuggling two loaded handguns into a state prison at Wartburg. The guns were hidden in a box filled with board games and books. Twenty-seven-year-old Tiara Monique Ward is being held at the Morgan County Jail. Ward’s bond was reduced from $100,000 to $25,000 at a Thursday hearing where a public defender was appointed to represent her. A Department of Correction news release issued Thursday says investigators discovered the two weapons in a package delivered to the Morgan County Correctional Complex on Sept. 17.” [editor’s note: OK, let’s review … We already know the “authorities” cannot keep “illegal drugs” out of prisons (and thus should cease and desist trying to keep them out of general society?); now they can barely even keep GUNS out of the hands of incarcerated criminals? - SAT] (10/09/08)
