Harris County Jail drug smuggling case: Court documents reveal new details
HARRIS COUNTY, Texas - We're continuing to follow the ongoing drug crisis at the Harris County Jail.
Court documents are giving us new details in connection to the smuggling of drug-laced papers inside the jail.
The story has been unfolding all week.
A retired Houston attorney 77-year-old Ronald Lewis was arrested.
He was seen on surveillance footage visiting inmates at the jail.
But this investigation started back in the summer after two inmates died from a suspected drug overdose.
It led to a search warrant.
That warrant points to a second attorney who has not been charged.
Police also named a 27-year-old Brianna Scott, who was charged with conspiracy to deliver a controlled substance.
