Once at the local jail, it was revealed that Talley had five Neurontin pills, a Suboxone patch and three partial Suboxone pills in her possession.
Talley was charged for possession of prescription pills without a prescription, possession of a schedule three drug, shoplifting and introducing contraband into the jail.
