Pot found in locker of dispatcher fired for being drunk

Posted: Updated:

An Erie County dispatcher has been fired after deputies say she showed up at work drunk. Now she faces additional charges after deputies say they found drugs in her locker at the sheriff's office.

Christie Johnson was arraigned Thursday morning. She pleaded "not guilty" to charges she showed up to work drunk and was released on bond.

She was arrested again later in the day after deputies found marijuana in her locker.

Johnson now faces additional charges of "illegal conveyance of drugs on the grounds of a detention facility," tampering with evidence and minor misdemeanor drug possession.
