81 y/o woman busted smuggling $870,000 of heroin across US-Mexico border

FOX – An 81-year-old woman was busted attempting to smuggle 92 pounds of heroin — valued at more than $870,000 — across the U.S.-Mexico border near San Diego, officials said.

A U.S. Customs and Border Protection detector dog at the Tecate border crossing reportedly alerted officers Wednesday to the driver-side rocker panel of a 2011 Chrysler 200 trying to enter the U.S. from Mexico at about 11:30 a.m.

In the side rocker panels, officers said they discovered 34 wrapped packages of heroin.

The woman, who authorities said is an American citizen but did not otherwise identify, was arrested and turned over to Homeland Security. CBP officers seized the vehicle.  read more

    “US citizen, but high probability she’s naturalized, with a Spanish name. To reveal her identity would explode the open borders narrative”

    Yup. There is no other reason to be hiding her identity. Still operating under Obama’s ROEs
