Two people face drug charges, after a Paducah woman was allegedly caught trafficking meth to a McCracken County Jail inmate.

The McCracken County Sheriff's Department says deputy jailers did a spot check Thursday afternoon at Carson Park on an inmate that was working there. Deputies reportedly found the inmate, 28-year-old Harold Fletcher, in a locked office building with the Carson Park property manager, 49-year-old Mary Jennett. Deputies said it took a while for Jennett to open the door, and they found Fletcher in a bathroom with meth.

Deputies said they learned that Jennett had been supplying Fletcher with meth and using it with him. They seized meth and a smoking pipe during a search of the building.

Jennett is charged with first-degree meth trafficking, possession of drug paraphernalia, and possession of meth. Fletcher faces charges of possession of meth and drug paraphernalia.

According to the sheriff's office, more charges are possible.
