PENN YAN, NY (AP) - Police say an upstate New York woman passed drugs to her son while kissing him when she visited him in a county jail.

Sheriff's deputies in Yates County tell local media outlets that 54-year-old Kimberly Margeson of Penn Yan was visiting her son last week when she hid Oxycodone pills and passed them from her mouth to his while giving him a kiss.

Police haven't said how the drugs were discovered.

She pleaded not guilty Tuesday to charges of criminal sale of a controlled substance and promoting prison contraband. She's free after posting bail.

Authorities say her 30-year-old son was also charged with promoting prison contraband. He remains in jail on an unrelated felony weapon possession charge.
