After months of searching, a woman with tuberculosis is in the Tulsa County jail. Authorities say Tracy Brunner failed to stick to a quarantine agreement from October.

So she's been jailed in a special cell to receive treatment which can take up to a year. TB is a highly-contagious disease. It's the world's second leading killer.

Health officials will track Brunner's activity over the past four months and contact those who might have come in contact with her.
