Wellsville woman gets prison time in village meth case

Cornell

A Wellsville woman is headed to state prison after pleading guilty to the felony crime of 3rd degree unlawful manufacturing of meth. She had originally faced several other charges. In Allegany County court Wednesday, Mary Cornell, 30, of 175 Maple Avenue was sentenced by Judge Thomas Brown to a state prison term of 2 1/2 years. In addition, Cornell will serve one year post release supervision and must pay a DNA fee and court surcharge.
Wellsville Police made the arrest in March after two meth labs were discovered in the residential neighborhood. Police were assisted by New York State Police CCSERT, Southern Tier Regional Drug Task Force, New York State Police C-NET, New York State Division of Parole and the Allegany County Probation Department. Assistant District Attorney Mike Finn prosecuted the case.
