INEZ, Ky. (WMDJ) — A Lexington woman faces charges after Kentucky State Police said she used her 10-year-old daughter to help smuggle drugs to an inmate at the USP Big Sandy federal prison in Martin County.

Troopers said the incident happened in April, but 32-year-old Shakaree Carter was arrested Friday on an indictment warrant. Police were called to the prison on Airport Road in Inez after staff reported possible contraband activity.

Officials said Carter had been acting suspiciously during a visit with an inmate. According to investigators, Carter, her daughter, and the inmate went into a restroom together. Surveillance footage later showed the inmate using the child to block the camera’s view before reaching into the child’s pocket to retrieve drugs and put them in his mouth.

Staff detained the inmate and took him to a hospital for evaluation. Police said Carter admitted she brought roughly 15 Suboxone strips inside a rubber glove with plans to give them to the inmate.

Troopers said they also found marijuana in Carter’s vehicle. She was indicted on charges of first-degree unlawful transaction with a minor, first-degree promoting contraband, and possession of marijuana.
