SIOUX FALLS (AP) – A woman held at the Minnehaha County jail died last month from a meth overdose, according to information from the county coroner released on Tuesday.

Warden Mike Mattson said that Jordin Eichmann removed a substance concealed in her body and ingested it shortly after 2:15 a.m. on May 13. Eichmann, 31, was found unresponsive in her cell later that morning.

She had been booked into the jail on a misdemeanor charge related to child support. Eichmann was a mother of three who was waiting on a spot reserved for her at a treatment facility.
