(Stillwater, Okla.) — A Cushing woman who admitted possessing methamphetamine near Perkins High School and possessing the same drug three months earlier when she was arrested for driving under the influence of an intoxicant in Stillwater has been ordered into a 30-day inpatient treatment program.
Christy Lynne Jones, 35, was placed on four years’ probation Friday with extensive conditions including following all recommendations contained in a background report for Associate District Judge Stephen Kistler, a court official told KUSH Tuesday.
Jones must also perform 50 hours of community service and pay $1,500 in fines, along with $300 in laboratory fees and $100 to the District Attorney’s Drug Fund, the court official said.
In her more recent case, Jones was arrested by Perkins Police Officer Kaylee Smarr, who was sent at 7:18 a.m. on March 9 on a report of a suspicious black vehicle in the Cimarron Golf Course parking lot, court records show.
The officer wrote in an affidavit, “I approached the driver side of the vehicle when the driver stuck her head out of the window advising that she was fine.
“While speaking with her, I observed that she was acting nervous and kept asking if she could just go home. She advised she was heading home and she pulled over to talk on her phone.
“I asked her where she lived and she advised Cushing, Oklahoma. I then asked her where she was coming from and she stated her house.
“I asked her what she was doing in Perkins and she told me that she had spent the night in Agra with a friend after she had gotten into a domestic over the phone,” the officer wrote in her affidavit.
Perkins Police Sgt. Dewayne Hammack “asked her if she had been in any trouble with the police and she replied for swerving and also her pain medication,” the affidavit said.
“I spoke with Christy asking if she had anything in her car that I need to know about. Christy looked in the back seat and said ‘no,"” Smarr wrote in her affidavit.
“As Sgt. Hammack and his (canine) partner, Atilla, were doing a fresh air sniff on the car, Christy kept looking in the back seat,” the affidavit said.
“Sgt. Hammack advised me that Atilla had a change of behavior on the passenger rear compartment of the car,” so the officer asked her to step out of her car, Smarr wrote in the affidavit.
“As she was getting out of her car, Christy said she didn’t have any pants on. Christy asked if she could put a black jacket on,” the affidavit said.
“Sheriff’s Deputy Christopher McKosato arrived on scene and was asked if Christy could be placed in his patrol unit for her safety due to her lack of clothing,” the affidavit said.
Then the two Perkins police officers began a systematic search of the car in which Smarr found a make-up bag with a make-up container holding a pink baggy which had a substance that tested positive for methamphetamine, the affidavit said.
Following her arrest, Jones was transported to the Payne County Jail, the affidavit said. She had been located 64 feet west of Perkins High School, the affidavit said.
Three months earlier, Jones was charged with possessing methamphetamine along with drug paraphernalia and driving under the influence of an intoxicant at 300 S. Duck Street in Stillwater on Dec. 5, 2012, court records show.
Since she was given a deferred sentence Friday, Jones will not have a criminal record if she successfully completes the terms of her probation.
