MASON CITY – A convicted ecstasy dealer who has served time in a state prison was caught with illegal drugs and then quickly set free.
A Cerro Gordo deputy stopped a speeding driver after 8 PM on Tuesday evening, August 29, near Killdeer Avenue and 300th Street in Cerro Gordo county. After an investigation, the driver, 34-year-old Tiffany Kay Milbrath, was arrested for two counts of possession of controlled substance (third offense meth and marijuana, Sheriff Kevin Pals tells NIT), possession of drug paraphernalia and speeding. She was booked into the county jail within an hour, records show, and held on $10,000 surety bond. However, she was quickly released.
Milbrath was convicted in Benton county in 2003 for possession with intent to deliver ecstasy. She was later sent to the Mitchellville prison for women and after release, was accused of violating her parole a number of times. She was caught stealing in Mason City in April of this year and was later guilty of fifth-degree theft. She was ordered to pay courts $562.50 in fines and court fees in that case.
