A Telford woman who smuggled drugs into a prison in her bra has been jailed for 14 months.
Fiona Lockwood, 25, of Church Street, Hadley, admitted two charges of possessing cannabis with intent to supply, when she appeared at Stafford Crown Court.

She was searched and two small packets were recovered.
Mr James Cullen, for Lockwood, said her actions were the result of “misguided affection”.
