Authorities say a 22-year-old Falmouth woman arrested while allegedly making a drug deal with her 3-month-old baby in her car was keeping her boyfriend's drug business running while he's in jail.
Jessica Walton had a plea of not guilty entered on her behalf at her arraignment Monday in Falmouth District Court. She was allowed to remain free on $1,000 bail she posted after her arrest Friday on charges of conspiracy to violate drug laws and trafficking in cocaine; possession of marijuana, heroin and Suboxone.
Walton was arrested after police received a tip about a drug transaction.
Prosecutors say Walton's boyfriend, Nazario Garate, is a known gang member and drug dealer currently in jail.
The Cape Cod Times reports the baby was unharmed and is in the care of relatives.
