NORWICH – A Norwich woman pleaded guilty Monday to dealing heroin, telling the court she was an addict at the time and now wants to get her life back on track and is willing to testify against her co-conspirator.

Rachael A. Cummings, 21, pleaded guilty to third degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, a class B felony, for trafficking heroin from her residence at 4 Lee Ave. in the City of Norwich in the months leading up to her Sept. 30 arrest.

Defense Attorney Frank Revoir Jr. described his client as being taken advantage of by accused heroin dealer 39-year-old David A. Cahill. He told the court Cummings was a local girl who had fallen in with the wrong crowd and developed a substance addiction that encouraged her participation in the crime.

Cummings admitted in court that she sold heroin with Cahill to feed her own addition to the drug.
