PRESIDIO, Texas — A Presidio County woman could soon be facing a jury after being indicted in federal court.
Cherakee Lee Perez, 32, is charged with one count of possession with intent to deliver methamphetamine and fentanyl and one count of importation of methamphetamine and fentanyl.
A narcotic detection canine found over three dozen packages containing the drugs in Perez's vehicle when she was stopped at the Presidio Port of Entry from Mexico.
The packages contained around 4.5 kilograms of meth and seven kilograms of fentanyl.
Perez appeared in federal court in Alpine on Jan. 17 and was indicted on Feb. 9.
At this time there is no word on when Perez will appear before a judge again.
