Two Bronx neighbors were returning from the Dominican Republic when the feds caught the women with cocaine hidden under their pants.
Priscilla Pena and Michelle Blassingale had just arrived at JFK aboard a JetBlue airliner from Santo Domingo when they were stopped by Customs and Border Protection officers.
A drug-sniffing dog alerted officers when it neared Pena, but the feds searched her luggage without finding any drugs,then the officers initiated a pat-down of the two women and discovered that each was wearing what authorities called a “diaper” filled with six and a half kilos of cocaine hidden under their pants.
Together, the women were charged with smuggling of cocaine.
Blassingale was held in custody by a Brooklyn federal judge, while Pena was released on $150,000 bond.
