Contraband Intercepted at Coos Co. Jail
CCSO release – Date / Time: September 29, 2023, 1:15 a.m.; Classification: Supplying Contraband; Location: Coos County Jail; Illegal substance sent via mail to Adult in Custody at the Coos County Jail. On September 29th, 2023, at approximately 1:15 a.m. Deputy Tindall was screening incoming mail at the Coos County Jail. Deputy Tindall observed a drawing that was very light in color on the inside of the envelope. Due to previous experiences, Deputy Tindall suspected the drawing was an attempt to smuggle contraband into the facility. With the assistance of Sgt. Clayburn, Deputy Tindall was able to use the TruNarc Handheld Narcotics Analyzer. The substance tested positive to be a synthetic cannabinoid. This illegal substance is re-activated by the user by applying moisture. Thanks to Deputy Tindall’s due diligence, he kept this illegal substance from entering the housing facility at the Coos County Jail. We are incredibly thankful for our Corrections Deputy and their unwavering attention to detail.
