A woman reported to the Denton County Jail Work Release Program so intoxicated that she had to be taken to a hospital emergency room early Saturday, according to a sheriff’s report.
A jailer reported that the 32-year-old woman was in the jail shortly after midnight when she became unresponsive. Paramedics arrived and took her to an emergency room.
The jailer checked a satchel of several medications the woman brought with her. Inside one of the bottles he found a small amount of “hash” and two marijuana cigarettes, according to the report.
The hospital staff tested her blood and found it contained alcohol, marijuana, benzodiazepines, cocaine and amphetamine, a report states. After her release, the woman was charged with possession of prohibited substances in a correctional facility.
About the same time, another woman was reported to be intoxicated at the jail. It turned out to be the woman who had dropped the first woman off for the work release program, according to the report.
