There is no limit to innovation and ingenuity, even for drug smugglers. And this what two women were trying to do to evade the custom the officials at JFK airport.

Priscilla Pena and Michelle Blassingale, returning to New York's JFK on a JetBlue flight from the Dominican Republic, almost evaded the custom officials at the JFK with 6 kilos of cocaine hidden in their home made diapers under the ir pants - but not the drug sniffing dogs. The dogs who started to go wild when the two women came close, exposed their smuggling bid as a physical search led to their hidden diapers stuffed with cocaine rigged like a girdle around their hind quarters.
Blassingale is being held in jail by a Brooklyn federal judge and Pena has been released on a $150,000 bail bond.
