Michigan woman busted for smuggling bottle of Pinot Grigio into jail in her ...........

TL/DR - stole bottle of wine, drank it in the bathroom, got arrested. As soon as she got out of jail, she went back to the same store, shoplifted another bottle, and stuck it up her vagina.


FYI - A standard bottle of wine is three inches in diameter at its base and just shy of 12 inches tall.
It holds 750ml of liquid and weighs more than two-and-a-half pounds.

While being processed into jail, a Michigan woman was found to have concealed a stolen “unopened bottle of Cupcake Vineyards Pinot Grigio wine inside her vagina,” according to investigators who charged the woman with attempting to smuggle contraband into a penal institution.

According to police reports, Monique Megchiani, 48, was arrested earlier this month for trespassing at a CVS pharmacy in Grand Traverse. Megchiani, who had previously been barred from the store, appeared at the business on May 9 and allegedly stole wine, which she consumed in the store’s bathroom.

After being hospitalized due to her “high intoxication,” Megchiani was discharged from a local medical center and “immediately returned” to CVS on May 10.

Police called to the store arrested Megchiani at the checkout counter for “trespassing on property again.” At the time, the arresting officer was unaware that “Megchiani stole another bottle of Cupcake Pinot Grigio and hid the bottle on her person.”

Megchiani, cops reported, was handcuffed, checked for weapons, and put into a squad car. That process was not smooth: “During this time, Megchiani advised that she was not able to get into the vehicle. After some convincing, Megchiani was able to slowly maneuver herself into the backseat.”

As the arrestee was subsequently being booked into the county jail, a female corrections deputy conducted “a final check of Megchiani’s person,” according to a Traverse City Police Department report. During that examination, “it was learned that Megchiani had concealed a bottle of Cupcake Vineyards Pinot Grigio inside her person.”

Megchiani (seen at left) complied with the deputy’s order to uncork the wine. The screw-top container "was removed and was still intact,” cops reported. “The evidence was destroyed, due to biohazard concerns.”
