AN alleged British drugs mule appears in court today as she fights charges that could see her jailed for 60 years.
Kim Hall, 28, was stopped at a Chicago airport on her way home from Mexico in August.
Investigators found 43kg of cocaine, worth £15million, in her two suitcases.
The self-employed beautician, of Middlesbrough, previously told The Sun: “There’s no way that I would knowingly transport drugs.
“I’m not a bad person. I’ve never been in trouble in my life and I’m not guilty of what they are accusing me of.
“I didn’t knowingly smuggle drugs.
“I’m not a drug trafficker and I’m going to fight to prove my innocence with every bone in my body.”
Hall claims two men she met in Portugal offered her a free holiday to Cancun but once there they threatened her and forced her to carry the bags back to Britain.
She says she was told they were packed with $250,000 in cash and had no idea she was actually carrying drugs.
The hearing takes place Wednesday in Chicago.
