From New Mexico Politics with Joe Monahan:
A member of the powerful state Public Regulation Commission who advocated zero tolerance on drugs and alcohol in the PRC workplace has been arrested on drug charges. E. Shirley Baca, 53, of Las Cruces, was taken into custody shortly after 7 a.m. Wednesday at Albuquerque’s international airport. She was booked into the Bernalillo County Metropolitan Detention Center on charges of possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.
John Roberts, deputy chief of Albuquerque Aviation Police, told The Associated Press that the controlled substance was marijuana. Baca’s bond was set at $1,000, and she bonded out by early afternoon, jail officials said. Fellow Commissioner David King said he was stunned when told by the AP that Baca had been arrested. “I know that she was one of the advocates to have zero tolerance for drugs or alcohol” at the PRC, King said. She advocated immediate dismissal of any PRC employee when it comes to drugs or alcohol, he said.
