March 24, 2010 - INDIANAPOLIS—Kimberly M. Clark, 32, Evansville, was sentenced to 18 months in prison today by U.S. District Judge Larry J. McKinney following her guilty plea to providing contraband in prison, announced Timothy M. Morrison, United States Attorney for the Southern District of Indiana. This case was the result of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Federal Bureau of Prisons.
On January 4, 2009, Clark visited inmate Steven G. Roden at the Federal Correctional Institution component of the Terre Haute Federal Correctional Complex. During the visit, Clark passed four small balloons from her right hand to his left hand. Roden then swallowed the balloons. Based upon the observations of this conduct by Bureau of Prisons staff, Roden was placed in a dry cell status. Later, Roden passed the balloons. A field test and later, laboratory tests, indicated that the balloons contained heroin. He was sentenced in January to 27 months in prison.
According to Assistant U.S. Attorney James M. Warden, who prosecuted the case for the government, Judge McKinney also imposed two years supervised release following Clark’s release from prison.
