5.8KG, thought it was a set of headphones!

try putting 5.8KG of anything on your head!

i rekon shes in BIG twoubble.

Bigger than big twubble.

Even if she identifies the person who gave it to her, she still gets 4 years in prison.

And how stupid naive can you be.  Put a black plastic parcel in your luggage for a

complete stranger....in Colombia, of all places!

this 'friend' gives her some 'heavy headphones' for what reason?

for her as a gift or for who?

if it was her then what was the plan for the 'headphones' when she got home?

if it was to give to someone else back here in australia, then first thing id be yelling is 'i was suposed to give it to joe bloggs back in australia when i got home'

there has to be more than just this person gave me a really heavy package and i stuck it in my bag. i'm naive forgive me.

according to todays Advertiser, the cocaine was hidden in over 15 sets of headphones (gifts for her bridal party - apparently)

Ooooh, David,  she's originally from Minlaton.     Practically your neighbour

15,16 pairs of headphones.  Still heavy at 5.8 kg

Can't beat stupidity.

It's Colombia FGS!

[davidc4430]

oh...minlaton....that explains it all.....sex, drugs and booze capital of south australia...........LOL

[bright.ton42]

I feel for the family .......... of course they will say she is innocent.  Anyway they have obviously started a Go Fund me account as it's said they have raised $2000.

If as reported she was taking the headphones home as her own property she wasn't set up at all

she's been caught fair and square attempting to export narcotics. If they were as she claimed for

her bridal party (15 a big bridal party) the package was hers and not for delivery to another person.

Freddie, she bought the headphones and the guy said he would deliver them

to her hotel room the next morning before she left.

Which is what happened.   They were nicely taped up in black plastic and she just

chucked them in her suitcase, and off she went.

Not a trafficker,  just plain stupid IMO

If she'd gotten past the Colombians, she still had to get through Aussie Customs.

And they certainly would be looking at someone coming from Colombia, with

black plastic packages.

i'm just wondering, what amazing headphones can you get in columbia you cant buy on ebay?
