According to the Anchorage Daily News, she arrived in court today without a lawyer, friends or supporters.

The case against Sherry began in September -- during the McCain-Palin presidential campaign -- when investigators intercepted a package containing 179 OxyContin pills.
Two suspects who were arrested agreed to serve as informants and made undercover purchases from Johnston in exchange for a lighter sentencing.
According to a police affidavit, Sherry allegedly sold them OxyContin -- which she referred to as "coffee" in text messages -- in October and November.
In an Oct. 1 message, she wrote: "I wish I could but there's only so many times I can go for coffee a month. The rest of the time I need to have it at home!"
After making two transactions, a third purchase took place on Nov. 26. The informant was wired and this time police videotaped the meeting.

Sherry's not guilty plea comes a week after Levi and Bristol welcomed a boy, Tripp, in Palmer, Alaska. The two are set to wed this summer.
