Luisa Gil of Union City, NJ was arrested in Boston after swallowing a pound of cocaine. Authorities are holding her on $200,000 bail on a charge of Class B substance trafficking.
The 21-year old woman flew into Logan airport from the Dominican Republic. When authorities questioned her, her answers seemed suspicious. She then admitted to swallowing 50 pellets of compacted cocaine. The cocaine had been wrapped in condoms.
After hearing the woman tell her story, police took her to the hospital, where the dope was recovered. The drugs had a street value of $50,000. She was allegedly paid $2,000 to make the transfer of the drugs to the US.
Yes, we wonder how desperate people have to be in order to do something like this to earn money.
