A woman who supplied Black Guerrilla Family gang members with drugs to sell at the Baltimore jail pleaded guilty Wednesday to a conspiracy charge in federal court.
Tyesha Mayo, 30, obtained marijuana and prescription pills and handed them off to corrupt corrections officers, who smuggled them past the walls of the Baltimore City Detention Center and into the hands of gang leader Tavon White, according to facts supporting her plea presented in court.
In return, White paid Mayo using electronic transfers and cash, according to the statement.
"Did you do the things the government said you did?" Judge Frederick Motz asked Mayo.
"Yes," she said.
Mayo, whom White described as his cousin in intercepted phone messages, is the first person in the jail case to plead guilty to working for the gang on the street. White was the first to admit to his part in the smuggling in August.
