...so let's have a hearty rendition of 'Oh, yes you are':
Filters - they can work miracles!
When her week-long trip to Cancun was coming to an end, Ms Hall claimed the men asked her to take two suitcases back with her, which they said contained $250,000 in cash.
'I agreed to it because there was no reason not to. It was just money and I didn't see anything wrong in it,' she said.
If there was 'nothing wrong in it' they'd do it themselves, not recruit some gormless bird! She doesn't even realise she's admitted intending to smuggle here, albeit got the substance wrong...
Her father John Hall, 59, previously defended his daughter, saying all she is guilty of is 'stupidity and naivety'.
That's all that's needed in a smuggler. Is the whole family stupid?

Beautician? It's like having a bald barber
Just thinking from the other side here, but there's something else a bit off about the story.
Imagine you're a professional drug smuggler; you've got bills to pay and demanding, violent line managers to satisfy... but you don't want to get caught riding dirty. So you need a mule - and one that's going to actually get the delivery to the destination (see above!).
Question: Why would you pick *this* creature to do the job?
So, while on holiday in Portugal, she meets two blokes, who she has never met before, but who offer her a free holiday in Mexico. She accepts, and is asked to take two (presumably locked) suitcases back to the UK. I wonder what the level of education in Middlesbrough is like, to have produced such a dimwit?
This is a well known tactic by drug smugglers, where the stupid are allowed to be caught, while regular smugglers sneak through during the confusion of the arrest.
Must go now, to catch my plane, after being offered a free holiday in Bolivia.

How did the police recognise her behind that strong filter?

Another one whose mother must've given birth whilst standing up.

AS Jaded points out, filters are working overtime!
"...but there's something else a bit off about the story."
There's a hell of a lot of things!
"... where the stupid are allowed to be caught, while regular smugglers sneak through during the confusion of the arrest."
Ah, a cunning plan!
"Another one whose mother must've given birth whilst standing up."
