Mother, Jugs, & Speed: Austin Cops Bust Mom for $ 2M of Meth

A woman was arrested last week after cops pulled her over and discovered $2 million worth of liquid methamphetamine hidden in jugs while her 4-year-old daughter sat in the car, police said Wednesday.

Seline Lizeth Ayala, 23, was speeding down Interstate 35 in Austin, Texas, when officers stopped her on July 12, police said. Another passenger and her daughter were also in the vehicle at the time, according to Fox 7 Austin.

Officers noticed Ayala was exhibiting “suspicious behavior” and was nervous as she was being questioned. Narcotics K-9 did an “open air sniff,” leading officers to the meth hidden in five jugs of “Purple Power” degreaser in the vehicle’s interior compartment and trunk.

The 75 pounds of liquid meth equaled 34,000 grams — a total street value of about $2 million.

Ayala later told police an unidentified man asked her to deliver the drugs to the Dallas area, Fox 7 reported. She also admitted to delivering meth in late June to Carrollton, Texas.

Ayala was charged with conspiracy to possess with intent to deliver controlled substance. She faces up to 20 years in prison if convicted

Sometimes, the headlines just write themselves.

i always like how the police inflate the value of the drugs they seize. it didn't cost Drugs, Inc. $2,000,000 to make and transport that stash. but if they had gotten what the police think is full price for the whole shipment, then maybe Drugs, Inc might have seen a gross of $2M.

they make it for X, sell it upstream for 2X, and they are out of the loop. every step ups the price and cuts the quality. pretty simple business model.

So, how did the Mexican drugs get into the US? Oh, they came through a porous border. Imagine that.

Also, a drug mule just threw away her life since, I'm just guessin' here, 75 pounds just might catch her a felony. Meh, you play the game, you gotta pay when it's your turn.

If I was running drugs like that, I'd have a dash cam to prove I was not speeding or weaving. The only way she isn't going to jail for a long time is if she can get the evidence tossed out as a bad search.

Best thing that could have happened to her 4 year old daughter.
