An Indiana woman began having a medical emergency while being booked into jail. When deputies raced to her aid, life-saving efforts led to a hefty charge.
37-year-old, Lindsay Stokes, was being booked into Vanderburgh County Jail, Indiana, on Tuesday- April 21st.
Lindsay had been arrested on a theft charge and picked up on a charge of drug paraphernalia during the process.
While being processed into the jail on Tuesday, Lindsay began showing signs of medical distress.
Lindsay was struggling to breathe and attempting to indicate to deputies that there was an obstruction blocking her airway.
She reportedly mouthed "pull it out".
Deputies rushed to her aid and were successfully able to remove the obstruction.
The obstruction turned out to be a baggie containing around 10 grams of methamphetamine.
This medical crisis led to additional and more serious charges of possession of methamphetamine, trafficking w/inmate, and dealing methamphetamine.
We are glad the deputies understood what she was saying.
