NATCHEZ — A woman was arrested Monday for trying to smuggle drugs into the Natchez jail in a box of soap.

Jessica Kate Emfinger, 19, Apartment A, 306 Briarwood Road, was charged with introducing contraband to a jail.

Chief Mike Mullins said Emfinger took a box of Irish Springs soap and cut the bar of soap in half.

In the empty portion of the box, Emfinger reportedly stuffed 15 rolling papers, a small bag of marijuana, one Hydrocodone pill and a $1 bill, Mullins said.

The contraband was allegedly going to one of the Natchez inmates.

Upon inspection, a jailer found the items.

Emfinger will be held with no bond until arraignment.
