Dylan Sulit-Swalley, a 30-year-old Santa Barbara man, was charged this week with smuggling a large amount of contraband into County Jail. Officials say he secreted the drugs, electronics, and tools “inside his person” before the booking process. Sulit-Swalley was originally arrested earlier this week on a probation violation after he cut off his electronic monitoring device.

Inside the jail, the contraband would be worth nearly $20,000, officials said. The incident was likely the largest seizure of contraband in the facility’s history.

Suit-Swally was charged with bringing drugs into a jail and bringing drugs into a jail for sale. He is not eligible for bail due to a parole hold.
