An inmate is facing a murder charge after a woman died from a drug overdose at the Dallas County Jail on July 13, the Dallas County Sheriff's Office confirmed.
The suspect, 26-year-old Daisy Zuniga, is accused of smuggling a bag of drugs in her vagina while being booked at Lew Sterrett Justice Center on July 11, according to an arrest warrant affidavit obtained by KXAS-TV.
Zuniga and three other women ingested the drugs between meals and became severely ill, according to the affidavit.
Detention officers in the north tower responded to calls from inmates about 8:20 p.m. on July 13, the affidavit stated. "They are not moving," the inmates told the officers about the inmates in cell C.
Quinnetta Brinkley, 21, was unresponsive in her bunk, and another woman was on the floor of the cell, according to the affidavit.

I'll leave comments on how the drugs were smuggled to others, who can say it better.
The woman should be punished but I would not charge her with murder. That is virtue signaling. She is not a drug dealer. She is a drug user. She brought drugs in and used them with other inmates. It sounds like she almost died too. She should be punished for smuggling drugs into prison but it takes two to tango. She did not force the other inmates to take the drugs. I feel the same way about the way Matthew Perry is treated like some saint while his personal assistant who facilitated his drug use is vilified. Drug addicts will find ways to get drugs. They are to blame for their own deaths.
Word up! Avoid drugs frum Daisy’s vagina! Dat shid will kill yo!
Agreed- if I sell a motorbike to someone, and they kill themselves on it, I’m not to blame for their death. She didn’t hold a gun to his head and make him take the drugs- had she done so, and he died, then yeah, charge her with murder.
