Scarsdale's Andrea Sanderlin's attorney is discussing a plea deal with prosecutors. The 45-year-old mom, who has connections to Bronxville, is a accused of running a multi-million dollar pot-growing operation in New York City.
The judge in the case has put everything on hold while prosecutors and Sanderlin's lawyer talk about the plea deal. The Scarsdale mom has been out on bail since early this month.
Sanderlin lived in a Saxon Woods Road home with her daughters who are 13 and three-years-old. The 45-year-old is being electronically monitored. She is currently staying in Manhattan, with her 13-year-old daughter's grandmother.
Sanderlin is accused of growing and trying to sell more than 1,000 marijuana plants out of a Queens warehouse. The charges contrast with the mother of three's lifestyle, which recently included horseback riding lessons with her daughter at Twin Lakes Farm riding academy in Bronxville.
"(Sanderlin) chose to inhabit the shadowy underworld of large-scale drug dealers, using drug proceeds to maintain her family's facade of upper middle class stability," said U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch.
