A Pittsburgh woman was sentenced Tuesday to eight months in a federal prison for her role in smuggling synthetic marijuana, or K2, into correctional facilities, according to court records.
Sandra Wilson, 29, was ordered to spend an additional three years on supervised release.
Federal prosecutors said Wilson worked with a co-defendant in 2018 to get items with synthetic marijuana on them. She then smuggled those items to another co-defendant who was housed at the Northeast Ohio Correctional Facility in Youngstown and the federal prison in McKean in Northwestern Pennsylvania, according to court filings.
