Prosecutors say Gaston Brown of Jamaica had been paying a JetBlue flight attendant to smuggle drugs and cash because she underwent lighter screening at airport security checkpoints.
A Jamaican man who provided nearly 60 pounds of cocaine to a flight attendant to smuggle aboard a flight from Los Angeles International Airport was sentenced Thursday to nearly 14 years in federal prison.
He was convicted in 2018 of charges that included identity theft and conspiracy to possess and distribute cocaine. "As a known crewmember, Reynolds was subjected to much lighter screening at airport security checkpoints and would be able to transport the cash and cocaine without being stopped," the statement said.
