An Alabama corrections officer was sentenced Wednesday after she tried to smuggle methamphetamine into a federal prison in Atlanta where her fiancé was serving time in 2019, officials said Friday.

Her fiancé faces even more time behind bars.

Jennifer Deramus, 53, who was found guilty in November, was sentenced to five years in prison, followed by four years of supervised released, for conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute a controlled substance, possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance, attempting to provide a prohibited object to a federal inmate, and aiding and abetting a federal inmate’s attempt to obtain a prohibited item.

Her fiancé, 45-year-old Julius Stoudemire, was sentenced to five years and four months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release, after pleading guilty in November to one count of attempting to obtain a prohibited object as a federal inmate.

“Introducing contraband into a federal prison endangers the safety and security of inmates, guards and visitors alike,” said U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Georgia Ryan Buchanan. “Jennifer Deramus, a correctional officer, was uniquely positioned to know those dangers and now faces significant prison time of her own.”

Stoudemire was being housed at the U.S. Penitentiary in Atlanta when Deramus, a longtime corrections officer at a county jail in Prattville, Alabama, came to visit him in June 2019, Buchanan said. Stoudemire was serving time for conspiracy to defraud the United States and other charges, court records show.

Returning from the restroom in the visitors’ area, Deramus carried a cylindrical package back to her seat across from her fiancé, Buchanan said. A guard watching over the area thought the two were acting unusual and sent another guard to take a closer look.

The package was confiscated, and Buchanan said laboratory testing revealed that it contained meth. Authorities said Deramus then made false statements to an FBI agent about the incident.

“Maintaining the secure environment of federal correctional facilities is key to the safety of staff, inmates and the effort to deter future criminal conduct,” Special Agent of FBI Atlanta Keri Farley said.

I wonder how she got it through security?

I don’t.

I rented a room from a couple in California. The wife was a matron in the women's section of the county jail. While doing a search of an inmate returning from work release, she found a note wrapped in a ziplock bag during a cavity search- - - -"If puxxies could talk, what stories they'd tell!"

A cylindrical package? That doesn't pass the sniff test.

I'll bet it smelled like a week-old tuna sandwich or a can of sardines! "Confused as a blind lesbian in a fish market!"

Actually not an uncommon occurrence at all for prison and jail employees and even higher ranking ones to sneak in contraband to inmates and really never has been.

I guess that's why these inmates cultivate relationships with female guards. Because they don't want a male smuggling in a cylindrical package......

I'm still contemplating the women who manage to smuggle a gun into a jail that way. This is just one of several that I've read about.

Living dangerously- - - -the safety is in the "fire" position! I've known a few gals who could probably manage to hide a 6" Ruger Blackhawk that way!

Meh, it’s shooting blanks.

Illegal drugs and contraband gets smuggled internationally inside body orifices by both males and females all the time

When it comes to highly sought after contraband, it doesn't really matter to inmates if male or female smuggles it in or how, as long as they get what they want.

Yes, butt if you had a choice......

...neither...

nether, it is.

Local dude working the State Penn. kept getting deliveries at home,
told his wife it was "work stuff".

She opened one, it was drugs.

When he got to work, they were waiting on him, and he was arrested.


Always figured she was pissed he didn't set aside 10% for "The Big Woman".

Nice.
