A South Carolina woman believed to be a member of a group of drug traffickers known as “Las Señoritas” was arrested Monday in Mexico City — where she had been hiding for years to avoid prosecution in the US.
Burns is one of 43 defendants indicted in January on a collective 170 charges by the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office. She was accused of conspiring to traffic 400 grams or more of methamphetamine.The trafficking case, called “Las Señoritas,” was given its name because its main targets are women who authorities believe have run away to Mexico to avoid prosecution in the US.
The women allegedly traveled to Atlanta and other cities to pick up shipments of methamphetamine and bring it back to South Carolina, where it was distributed through the upstate region. All 43 of the co-conspirators have been charged with conspiring to traffic 400 grams or more of methamphetamine, a charge that carries a sentence of between 25 and 30 years.Newsflash
