Pasco Woman Jailed On Way To Pick Up Boyfriend From Jail

LAND O' LAKES, FL — Pasco County Sheriff's deputies say a 22-year-old New Port Richey woman landed in jail on her way to pick up her boyfriend from jail Wednesday.

According to the sheriff's office, Lois Jean Gleeson of Helena Street was on her way to the Land O' Lakes Detention Center when she was spotted by deputies who recognized her as a prolific offender who often drove without a license.

When deputies looked inside the truck she was driving, they saw a ripped plastic baggie containing a crystal powder that had spilled onto the seat and floor board.

The powder tested positive for methamphetamine. Gleeson told deputies that the drugs weren't hers, and she wasn't aware that they were in the truck when she headed to the jail.

She was charged with possession of methamphetamine possession and driving with revoked license, second conviction.
