Mexican Woman Caught Smuggling Cocaine
According to KXAN, 49-year-old Carmen Julia Carreon Segovia was recently sentenced to serve 10 years in federal prison for importing cocaine across the border with her daughter in the vehicle. Her daughter is just a teenager.
Details About the Cocaine Smuggling Leading to the Arrest
It was January of 2024 when Segovia was with her 16-year-old daughter and attempted to bring 6 kilograms of cocaine into the country from Mexico.

The eight bundles of drugs were found by border patrol agents after searching her vehicle and finding the packages in the front fender.
The total value of the drugs that were seized is approximately $90,000.
After Prison There Are More Consequences
As if giving up 10 years of your life isn’t enough, Segovia will also have other consequences after finishing her federal prison sentence. At that point she will be handed over to immigration services where she will face being deported.
