American caught smuggling $1M of crack in 17-pound wheel of Parmesan

Oh, wheely?

A California woman tried to smuggle more than $1 million worth of crack cocaine in a gigantic wheel of Parmesan cheese into the UK, according to reports.

Jamie Choi, 23, aroused the suspicions of UK Border Force agents when she arrived at Heathrow Airport on a flight from Brazil on May 25 with a 17-pound wheel of Peruvian Parmesan, the Evening Standard reported.

The crack stashed inside the cheese wheel was 94% pure, according to a forensic analysis, authorities said.

“We’ve seen people trying to smuggle cocaine into the UK hidden inside all manner of innocuous-looking items, but Border Force and the National Crime Agency are well-practised in finding drugs, whatever the disguise,” NCA senior officer Barry Vinall, told the outlet.

In the days before she arrived at Heathrow, Choi traveled from LA to Lima, Peru, then to Asuncion, Paraguay, then Sao Paulo, Brazil, officials said.

A notebook found in Choi’s bag contained a single handwritten note dated May 21.

“I dropped out of [University of California Santa Barbara] on Monday,” she wrote in the note.

“Currently I am in Paraguay in South America solo travelling for the first time. It’s been amazing so far.”

Choi pled guilty Aug 6 to charges of importing Class A drugs and was sentenced to five years and three months in prison.”
