( So I take it the judge didn't like your present)
AZTEC, N.M. - An inmate's letter delivered Monday to a district judge tested positive for marijuana, authorities said.
Craig Hopkins, an inmate at the San Juan County Detention Center, apologized to Judge Thomas Hynes for violating his probation. At the bottom of the envelope were marijuana leaves.
The discovery prompted a 6-hour shakedown in Hopkins' cellblock, but no other drugs were found, said Corrections Director Tom Havel.
Havel suggested the marijuana could have been smuggled into the facility in an inmate's body cavity.
Hopkins, who already faces charges ranging from possession of a controlled substance to DWI and battery on a household member, isn't talking to jail officials.
"He's clammed up tight," Havel said.
