Tamar Peebles of Brooklyn pleaded guilty to one count of attempted criminal sale of a controlled substance and one count of bribe receiving in Bronx Supreme Court.
She admitted accepting $1,500 from an undercover investigator and delivered "simulated" heroin and marijuana to the prison in January 2008.
Peebles and six other city correction officers were busted in a 16-month sting operation, which found officers willing to deliver money, cigarettes and drugs to inmates. Peebles, who faced the most severe charges of the group, picked up the cash and drugs at a Queens McDonald's while on her way to work. Cases for the others are still pending.
