Woman arrested trying to smuggle 1/2 pound of cocaine inside her.

Another person using her vagina as a smuggling compartment;

A woman traveling from Jamaica to New York was arrested Sunday after federal agents discovered that she was smuggling half a pound of cocaine in her vagina.

Shekira Thompson, a 21-year-old U.S. citizen, flew from Kingston to John F. Kennedy International Airport, where during questioning from Customs and Border Protection officers she reportedly “admitted to vaginally inserting a foreign body.”

That foreign body, seen above, was a “vaginal insert” that weighed eight ounces and was filled with cocaine, according to federal officials who estimated the drug’s street value at $10,000.

the only equipment that might work? Well, wow, I'd have to be paid a bunch (more than $10k) to "smuggle" that nugget...

btw: I wonder - how was she caught?
