La Salle Woman Accused Of Dealing Heroin

A week before classes begin, a woman has been arrested for heroin a block north of L-P.

Members of Tri-DENT arrested Jamie Odell at her home in the 600 block of Chartres Street last night for unlawful possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver.  Investigators say charges won’t be elevated because the arrest was made more than a thousand feet away from L-P.

Odell was taken to the La Salle County Jail with bond set at 500 thousand dollars.
