Woman hiding $70G worth of cocaine in box of Jamaican Beef Patties busted at JFK
A Jamaican woman was busted after Customs agents found four pounds of cocaine hidden in a box of the golden-crusted meat-filled treats at Kennedy Airport, officials said Thursday.
Federal Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials said agents got suspicious when they found the box of Tastee Brand Jamaican Beef Patties in Chantal Alecia Bedward’s luggage when she arrived at JFK Airport from Kingston Tuesday, officials said.
When they took her into a private search room and opened the box, 12 duct taped packages of cocaine spilled out.

Agents arrested Bedward for drug smuggling and turned the case over to the Department of Homeland Security investigations unit.
Where’s the beef? Certainly not in Chantal Alecia Bedward’s luggage, which turned out to be full of duct taped packages of cocaine. (U.S. CUSTOMS AND BORDER PROTECTION)
“This seizure demonstrates the vigilance and dedication demonstrated daily by CBP officers at JFK, in keeping these prohibited and dangerous narcotics off the streets of our communities,” said Robert E. Perez, Director of Field Operations in New York for CBP.
Officials estimated the street value of the drugs at $70,000.
Bedward will be prosecuted in Brooklyn Federal Court.

I only hope she knew about it as it would be sad if she didn’t. Sometimes is the innocent “decent” people that get tricked into transporting these drugs for others because they don’t know anything about the trade so they are not as vigilante as the more clued up. I know a girl from Montserrat who was a British citizen dating a Jamaican man. She went to Jamaica with her child to meet his family and when she was coming back they gave her liquid coke in a perfume bottle to take back for him and she went to prison. so it can happen.
Decent and fool fool.
1. Fi one patty don’t have the weight that box have with that particular contraband in it.
2. Me certain it wasn’t refrigerated and have tastee film over it
As fi the fool with the liquid cocaine…damn fool. Me sure the liquid was void of color and scent, container shows sign of being tampered with. Tom drunk, but him no fool
If that patty box made it pass downstairs has part of hand luggage, or secondary as checkon then we may need fi know if a de gift shop pass on the item to the passenger/mule.
What a way dis yah woman brazen een Jah? she not even have a patty inna di box? no man
now dem ago band patty because a these crosses yah.. a hope she spend a lifetime in jail and never see back daylight… inna dem time yah people still a try smuggle drugs through airport… what a f**king ass, what is wrong with these people omfg.. jesus christ
