A woman was arrested at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood Airport after authorities said they found cocaine hidden in her bra during an inspection.
NBC Miami reported that a Jamaican woman traveling through the airport was arrested on Aug. 2 after U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials said they found about 2.7 pounds of cocaine hidden in her bra. The officials said they came across "abnormalities" while inspecting the woman and the found substance tested for cocaine.
"This is another excellent example of our CBP officers’ expertise in preventing dangerous drugs from entering the United States," Airport Director Jorge Roig said in a statement. "CBP officers demonstrate vigilance, integrity and professionalism on a daily basis."
This happened a month before a woman, who was coming to Fort Lauderdale from Jamaica, was found with 54 cocaine pellets in her system after she said she used honey to help them go down, which she learned by watching the movie, "The Mule," on Netflix.
It was found that more than 12 ounces of cocaine were in her system from the 54 pellets.
