Alisha Tworuschka and Jacqueline Desorcy flew to Manchester from Canada
Two would-be drug smugglers who flew halfway around the world after being promised free holidays are behind bars. Alisha Tworuschka, a mother-of-two, and Jacqueline Desorcy arrived in Manchester after travelling from their homes in Canada.
“Perhaps some people would be out of the building very quickly, but she wasn’t,” Tworuschka’s lawyer said. The pair, both 29, were both jailed for a year and 10 months. Manchester Crown Court heard the two women landed in Manchester on May 10, where they were spotted by Border Force officers. They discovered four large suitcases containing 72 kilos of cannabis.
You are each intelligent and hard working young women with stable homes and loving families in Canada. Your agreement to act as drug couriers amounts in both of your cases as a monumental error of judgement. That may well have been made through vulnerability or naivety on your part.
