Milwaukee Women Given Jail Time For Bringing Illegal Substance Into Fox Lake Correctional

(Fox Lake) A Milwaukee woman was sentenced to six months in jail with work release privileges Friday for bringing an illegal substance into Fox Lake Correctional. Sophia Guarnero entered a no contest plea to a felony charge of Deliver Illegal Articles to an Inmate. On November 17 of last year, correctional staff was made aware of a possible delivery of contraband later that day. A monitored phone conversation between an inmate and Guarnero suggested she was going to bring chicken and waffles as well as an illegal drug. Guarnero was questioned when she arrived and repeatedly denied the accusations but later admitted her wrong doing. The 36-year-old produced a cellophane wrapped object that contained three small balloons that were filled with marijuana. In addition to jail time, Guarnero was placed on probation for three years.
