There was a documentary a few weeks back here, showing how some of the girls got caught. There was an alarming amount of girls from SA that didn't even know what was going on. They were convinced they were going for an interview in Brazil

or that the nigerian guys loved them & was spoiling them. I mean, i don't trust any nigerians for shit, i know its a gross generalization but they are shady mother fuckers.
When they take the girls to the airports they take the bags to have them wrapped & then hide the drugs in hidden compartments. Honestly, i don't know if it boils down to being naive or just being plain dumb.
One another note, the prisons in south america are full of woman with babies. Thats pretty fucking bad, over here, if you have a baby in prison, the kid goes to relatives or to social services. It's hard enough trying to avoid being shanked, now you have to avoid having your baby stabbed or molested.
Asian prisons are also hectic i believe, especially malaysia & thailand. They don't fuck around there, you bring in drugs, you're gonna sit for life.
Yeah people from USA & England are pretty lucky in that regard. Here the president had a live broadcast on national television with the Brazilian president & said, any citizens that get caught there, are on their own.So i won't be getting up to any mischief in south america at any point of my life.
