For her intent to sell cocaine and heroin, Monroe was charged with two counts of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree. She was also charged with criminal possession of controlled substance in the fifth degree for possessing cocaine.
Monroe was sent to the Tompkins County jail without bail. She is currently on NYS parole and was issued a parole warrant.
