Caribbean Airlines flight attendant jailed in US for drug smuggling attempt
A flight attendant for Caribbean Airlines has been sentenced to 2 and a half years in federal prison for attempting to smuggle 6.5 pounds of cocaine. Rohan Mayers was arrested at the Fort Lauderdale International airport, immediately confessing after officers questioned him.
The Jamaican father of 2 asked the court for leniency for his first offence, but the District Judge decided on prison time based on the sheer amount of drugs involved.
Myers was arrested in September at Fort Lauderdale's Hollywood International Airport after working on a Caribbean Airlines flight from Montego Bay.
