DIY cocaine diapers don't fool feds at JFK airport, just so you know

1/30/2013

Would-be drug smugglers may think they're getting smarter, but the evidence is to the contrary. Bronx residents Priscilla Pena and Michelle Blassingale had just flown into New York from the Dominican Republic when a drug-sniffing dog pointed them out to customs officials at JFK International Airport.

Pena was released on bond, while Blassingale remains in police custody. [Source]
