…five more busted yesterday for more ‘coke in crotch’

The 51-year-old American woman who was caught on Thursday morning with cocaine in her crotch at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport, Timehri, has been sentenced to four years’ imprisonment.
The woman, Donna Williams, appeared at the Providence Magistrate’s Court yesterday before Magistrate Leslie Sobers. The charge was put to her that on Thursday October 11, last, at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport, Timehri, she had in her possession 180 grams of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking.
The defendant pleaded guilty. When asked to provide information on her address in the United States she indicated that she was living in a Shelter. The court was told that this was the woman’s first visit to Guyana.
Williams merely told the court that a doctor was supposed to have ‘push up the thing’ in her.
Before the Magistrate handed down his sentence he enquired from the accused her reason for coming to Guyana to do such an act. She told the magistrate that she had no reason for her action.
Ms Williams was then sentenced to four years imprisonment and fined $259,200. The Magistrate then informed the woman that after she would have served her sentence she will be deported immediately.
On Thursday morning, around 06:00 hours the woman was about to board a Delta flight destined for the United States when she was stopped and searched. The court was told that during a pat down search, an unusual bulge was felt at the woman’s crotch. She was taken to a private room where she was strip-searched. Two balloons packed with cocaine were found in the woman’s underwear.
And early Friday morning too Police Anti-Narcotic Ranks intercepted five other Americans with a total of 2.275 kg cocaine. The five persons, two males and three females, each had a quantity of the drug stashed in their under garments.
Charges are likely to be laid shortly.
