Drugs Double-Wrapped In Condoms Surgically Removed From Woman’s Pelvis

A woman, Claudia Ibarra, who was arrested on suspicion of smuggling drugs from Mexico into the United States, had to have a one-pound package of methamphetamine surgically removed from her pelvis last week.

Spokes woman U.S Customs and Border, Teresa Small, revealed that Claudia Ibarra, 31, was taken into custody after U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents patted her down and ”realized there was something down there.”

A doctor removed from Ibarra a black package of drugs double-wrapped in condoms. Ibarra, a U.S. citizen and resident of Yuma, Ariz., had attempted to cross the border at San Luis alone and on foot, according to authorities.
