A Louisiana math teacher accused of trying to sell meth reportedly still clocks in for work at a junior high school following her arrest.

Casey Tyler Oden, 43, was arrested Thursday in West Monroe when police allegedly found three bags of meth in her bra, the Monroe News Star reported.

Police said they were contacted by a man who said he could purchase meth from the Ruston Junior High School teacher.

The man arranged for Oden to bring him three ounces of meth to the Avant Motel in Calhoun, according to officials. He also reportedly also requested Alprazolam and Diazepam, which are controlled medications used to treat anxiety.

Officers pulled the eighth-grade math teacher over while she was en route to the motel.

Upon searching her, they discovered Alprazolam, Diazepam and 85.8 grams of meth on her person, according to police.

Oden was arrested on suspicion of two counts of the production, manufacture, distribution or possession with intent to distribute a Schedule IV narcotic and one count of possession with intent to distribute or manufacture a Schedule II controlled dangerous substance.

She was released Thursday from Ouachita Correctional Center on $21,500 bond, according to court records.

Lincoln Parish Schools Superintendent Mike Milstead said that the teacher remains employed in the district but could be placed on leave depending on the findings of the police investigation, news station KNOE reported.
