A Ukiah woman was convicted recently of possessing drug paraphernalia that she tried to bring into the Mendocino County Jail, the Mendocino County District Attorney’s Office reported.
According to the office of DA David Eyster, a Mendocino County Superior Court jury last week found Kelisha S. Alvarez, 36, of Ukiah, “guilty of the unlawful possession of a (drug-smoking) pipe that she surreptitiously tried to bring into the Low Gap jail facility, a felony.”
The DA also noted that “the defendant had already been found in violation of terms of her post-release community supervision, an alternate form of parole overseen by the Adult Probation Department,” describing Alvarez as “a long-standing criminal defendant in the local justice system going back to at least 2009, having suffered in Mendocino County alone eighteen prior misdemeanor convictions, four prior felony convictions, seven prior violations of PRCS that were found to be true, and six prior violations of state parole supervision that were found to be true. The defendant has also served two state prison commitments in the past.”
The DA also explained that “the law enforcement agencies that developed the evidence presented (at trial were) the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office and the Ukiah Police Department, (and that) trial support was provided by the DA’s Bureau of Investigations. The prosecutor who presented the people’s evidence to the jury was DA David Eyster, and Mendocino County Superior Court Judge Keith Faulder presided over the two-day trial.”
