Teacher accused of taking marijuana gummies into Wayne Co. juvenile jail – Medical Marijuana Program Connection

A Detroit woman is accused of having drug-laced gummy bears on school grounds while working as a teacher last summer, officials said.

Darla Spinner, 48, is scheduled to be formally charged Thursday through 31st District Court in Hamtramck with possession of marijuana on school property, a felony, the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office said.

Officials said police arrested Spinner on Friday. She was given an interim $2,000 bond during a hearing last week.

If convicted, she faces up to four years in prison.

According to authorities, Spinner was working as a teacher at the Wayne County Juvenile Detention Facility in Hamtramck over the summer.

On July 12, she allegedly brought marijuana gummies with her into the facility at about 8 a.m.

The Prosecutor’s Office authorized an arrest warrant for Spinner and charged her with the crime on July 27, officials said.
