Man sentenced for drugs in butt crack

A Norwalk man who attempted to hide drugs in his anus was sentenced Oct. 30 to three years of community control.

Jason J. Taylor, 40, pleaded guilty Sept. 26 to illegal conveyance of drugs of abuse onto the grounds of a specified governmental facility, trafficking in drugs, possession of drugs and drug paraphernalia stemming from a traffic stop Nov. 30, 2017, in Lorain.

According to a Lorain police report, Taylor was spotted leaving a parking lot known for drug trafficking and was pulled over after running a stop sign.

Officers searched Taylor and the car and found multiple signs of drug abuse, a scale and 12.7 grams of a white powdery substance, the report said.

Before being booked into jail, a strip search revealed a cellophane wrapper surrounding a paper bindle in Taylor’s rear end, according to the report.

The white powdery substance in the paper bindle tested positive for heroin, the report said.

Woman sentenced for assaulting EMT

A woman who assaulted medical personnel was sentenced Oct. 30 to two years of community control and to attend anger management classes.

Diesha D. Spencer, 25, of Lorain, pleaded guilty Sept. 19 to assault for the April 17 incident.

According to a Lorain police report, Spencer was arrested on a warrant after officers were called to her East 31st Street home for a report of domestic violence.

When officers arrived and found no domestic violence issue at the home, they attempted to arrest Spencer, who then claimed to have medical issues, the report said.

Life Care personnel believed Spencer was faking her symptoms but transported her to Mercy Health, 3700 Kolbe Road, because she claimed she was pregnant.

Once on the gurney, Spencer became irate with a Life Care EMT and began attempting to kick him and bite his arm, the report said. She continuously screamed, pulled away from Mercy staff and yanked on her restraints, which kept her from striking anyone, the report said.
