This toothless bride will be spending her honeymoon behind bars after an observant deputy noticed a small package hidden behind her dentures; the package contained drugs and was meant for the groom.
According to what the Scott County Sheriff's Department explained to WBIR, Brita West came to the detention center in Huntsville to marry prisoner Willard Tinch on Sunday.
While she was being searched, she asked an officer how she would be able to kiss Tinch after the ceremony. While she was talking, the officer noted that West's dentures kept falling down, and saw that West had a package in her mouth.
The package was searched, and inside, officers found a package of methamphetamine and two suboxone strips.
West gave officers permission to search her purse and car, and they found more meth, a couple of syringes, and a dollar bill folded with a crushed pill that has not been identified yet.
West is charged with Possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of meth more than .5 grams, possession of schedule 3, and introducing drugs into a county institution.
She's being held on a $25,000 bond.
