British and French women arrested on cocaine-trafficking charges

A British woman and a French woman have been arrested on drug trafficking charges in Brazil after authorities found 44 pounds of cocaine in their luggage as they tried to catch a flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris, police said today.

Cecilia Maximilia, a 36-year-old Briton, and 20-year-old Jennifer Salagnac of France were arrested yesterday after authorities using baggage x-ray machines detected the cocaine wrapped in grease-lined packages inside false bottoms installed in their luggage, said federal police inspector Mauro Montenegro.

Police suspect the drugs were packaged in grease in an attempt to thwart detection at Tom Jobim International Airport, Montenegro said.


Maximilia told authorities she is a dancer and Salagnac said she is a beautician. Montenegro did not know their hometowns.

Both were jailed, and will remain incarcerated until a judge decides whether they should be tried on international drug-trafficking charges or deported.

If convicted in Brazil, the maximum penalty is 20 years in prison.

Cocaine is not produced in Brazil, but the country is a major transit point for drug shipments to Europe.


This is a new article, it doesn't mention Prince.

Did she dance in the 80s I think so, Prince would not have an overweight sloppy looking 36 year dancing in his hyper sexist line ups of 18 year old 40kg girls he has now. She probably danced for him in the Purple Rain to Nude period when she was one of these. She probably used the term Prince dancer to gain some media attention and hopefully sympathy from Prince fans. Hasnt washed you old drug hag.

One of the reasons I love Prince. Like me, he thinks DRUGS SUCK!!!

Has the artist formerly known as Prince been linked to a cocaine scandal? Two women arrested in a Brazilian airport and charged with having 20 kilos of cocaine claim that they are back up dancers for the press-shy singer. The artist’s office didn’t return calls for comment. . .

This report makes it seems like the women are his current dancers. confused

lol this thread is a prime example of media truth-twisting. 3 different articles, 3 different issues.

Still, I'd love to see Prince muddy his nose.

Drugs have always been a part of the music scene. Big deal.



This is so true. It goes back as far as the days of Charlie Parker and Thelonius Monk. In fact, even further. It's sad too.
