TYLER — An Anderson County woman has pleaded guilty in Tyler to federal drug trafficking. Andrea Rachelle Bailey, 31, of Palestine, pleaded guilty yesterday to possession with intent to distribute phencyclidine, also known as PCP, when she appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge John D. Love. She faces up to 20 years in federal prison for the violation. A sentencing date has not been set. Charges are still pending against her co-defendant Sterlynn Jeremiah Henry.
Federal prosecutors say on October 7, 2009, Bailey and Henry, were found to be in possession of a mixture containing a detectable amount of PCP, which they intended to distribute in East Texas. The two were indicted by a federal grand jury on December 1, 2010.
