4 arrested in drug ring bust at Boulder County Jail
The Boulder County Sheriff's Office says investigators seized paper and photos saturated with methamphetamine and ketamine in the Boulder County Jail. They say the drugs were being sent in through mail.
The six month-long investigation started when jail staff received an anonymous tip about the alleged crimes. Authorities say the mail was being sent to specific inmates.
Those people were identified, and authorities began their investigation by physically inspecting mail and having a K9 team sniffing incoming mail. Several letters later tested positive for meth.
