The complaint further stated that a guard heard inmate Shawn Douglas Weister give  Gay clearance to “go ahead.” It said Weister was directed to a strip search room, but instead, he ran away.

When guards caught up, he yelled, asking his grandmother to “Run granny, they caught me.”

The complaint stated that investigators found 22 sealed drinking straws containing various drugs including heroin in Weister’s possession. His grandmother, Gay became the first suspect because she was the only person who visited him.
