26-year-old South Florida woman, KathyAnn Ferguson, was arrested by security personnel at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, Miami shortly after her flight from Jamaica arrived at the airport and during a search on her, it was discovered that she had the drug hidden in her private parts.Ferguson, from Hollywood, was charged with cocaine trafficking and later released on bond.
The Broward Sheriff's Office, BSO, released a press statement to that effect.
She was stopped when a Customs and Border Patrol agent noticed something unusual about her, she was questioned, admitted to having cocaine on her body. She had inserted it in her private parts.
The BSO said Ferguson pulled out a cylindrical-shaped, plastic-wrapped package from her vagina that contained around six ounces of cocaine. Since the initial reports, Ferguson has bonded out of jail. The BSO said this is a crime that is happening on a regular basis.
People are often recruited to carry drugs on their body, whether they swallow it or insert it in another area. It’s frequent. It happens all the time and it’s a huge health risk to those people. People often die when the drugs inside their body rupture.
