Katie Mae Wright v. State

McMILLAN, JUDGE This appeal follows the conviction of the appellant for the offense of trafficking in a controlled substance and a sentence of ten years' imprisonment. The appellant, Katie Mae Wright, was arrested by the Mobile Police Department in an undercover operation in which the police participated in arranging the sale of a controlled substance, dilaudids. Using an informant, Officer Cochran of the Mobile Police Department contacted Willie Hinton, a/k/a Chill, who knew someone wanting to purchase a large quantity of controlled substances, specifically dilaudids. Hinton arranged a telephone conversation between Officer Cochran and the perspective buyers, a male and the appellant, each of whom participated in the negotiations through the use of separate telephone receivers. Officer Cochran negotiated an offer as to the selling price of the pills.
