Woman hid syringes, Kingston cops say

KINGSTON – Police arrested a woman on charges she attempted to hide syringes from officers who were investigating a heroin overdose.
Jennifer Ann Warman, 29, of Market Street, Kingston, told police Justin Barrick passed out after injecting two packets of heroin in her apartment on Friday. Warman dragged Barrick to a bathtub and failed to wake him with water, according to the criminal complaint.
Warman admitted to police, the criminal complaint says, that she hid six syringes in a closet before she called 911 for an ambulance. Barrick woke up after being treated by paramedics, police said.
Warman was charged with tampering with evidence and possession of drug paraphernalia.
She was wanted by Larksville police on charges she provided police with her sister’s name during a traffic stop in September.
She was arraigned by District Judge Fred Pierantoni in Pittston and jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $10,000 bail.
In an unrelated case, Warman was released from the county prison on Nov. 2 when a judge reinstated bail on drug charges.
Warman was captured in October on an arrest warrant charging her with failing to appear in court on Oct. 7, according to court records.
