Danielle Haylor, 29, from Squirrel Close, Langley Green, denies attempting to supply the Class A drug to convicted armed robber Tim Cole.She also denies possessing 23 tablets of diazepam, a Class C drug better known as Valium, which is illegal without a prescription.Prosecutors say she posted a book to Cole in Lewes Prison, with 3.17g heroin hidden inside the spine, in January last year.A jury at Hove Trial Centre was told that the heroin was 40 per cent pure, and there was enough for more than
30 doses, costing £10 each.Interviewed by police, Haylor told them she had sent CDs, clothes and books to Cole in jail, but denied sending him any drugs.In a transcript of the interview, read out by prosecutor Walton Hornsby and DC Nick Jones, Haylor said that on two occasions she had sent Cole a package from a friend of his.She denied touching or even seeing the contents, but said she thought she was sending him more books.Haylor said she had visited Cole in prison, both at Highdown and Lewes.At one point, she was banned from visiting him for three months, and afterwards was only allowed in for 'closed' visits, with a screen between them.
Although the prison governor wrote to her to tell her the decision had been made, the letter did not explain why.Haylor told police she had no idea why she had been banned, and had not been given an answer when she phoned the prison to find out.
Haylor denies the charges. The case continues.
