Teen Allegedly Had Loaded Gun In Her Vagina When Searched In Jail

A Tennessee teenager originally arrested for driving on suspended license allegedly was found with a loaded gun in her vagina.

During a routine pat-down at the Kingsport, Tenn., jail, on Monday afternoon, a female corrections officer “located an unknown item in her crotch,” according to the police report. That officer and a female cop then took the woman, 19, into the bathroom, where they discovered a five-shot mini pistol in her vagina.

The loaded handgun in question was North American Arms 22 LR revolver, about four inches long, which had been stolen during a car break-in last year according to law enforcement computer records. Police then charged the woman with gun possession, introduction of contraband into a penal facility, and possession of stolen property.

The suspect was released from custody on a $6,000 bond. According to the Kingsport Times-News, the original traffic stop may have been prompted by an assault complaint by her mother.

The rightful owner of the pistol, a retired car salesman, said the gun valued at $250 was stolen from his 1994 mustang while it sat in his driveway, and that he would prefer “the little fellow” returned at some point. Based on the circumstances, the pistol would need “a bath in bleach,” he added.

The Kingsport Times-News also reported that there could be another bleach connection in this incident.”Records reveal [the suspect] was arrested by the KPD on April 4 for domestic vandalism and aggravated assault. In that incident, she allegedly choked her mother, then later entered a bedroom to pour bleach on her mother’s clothes.”

Separately, as The Inquisitr previously reported in January, the ex-wife of Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Cormac McCarthy allegedly threatened her boyfriend with a gun that she pulled out of her vagina after they reportedly argued about space aliens. She was charged with aggravated assault.
