The search is on for the person who put heroin in a card and mailed it to an inmate at the Madison County Detention Center.
Jail officials tell us they found a substance inside a card during a routine check of incoming mail.
The substance tested positive for heroin.
We were told there’s always been a problem with people trying to sneak drugs into the jail, but they’ve never dealt with this before.

“This is our first experience with heroin that we’ve caught here, and that’s the reason we’re getting the sheriff’s department, they’re coming up later and going to check to see how much it is, how many grams it may be, and how they weigh it,” Madison County Jailer Doug Thomas said. “But you know, I’m hope we don’t see any more of this, but I think we probably will.”
Officials said they’re looking into whether the inmate who was to receive the card can be charged.
