Nun busted for smuggling cocaine in high heels

A Missouri nun smuggled two pounds of cocaine into Australia using her high heels — but claims she was duped into the act by a man she met online. Denise Marie Woodrum, 51, was caught arriving into Sydney Airport last August while making her way through customs — when officers discovered the drugs stuffed into the heels of her shoes, the Sydney Morning Herald reported Monday. But her lawyer, Rebecca Neil, told District Court judge Penelope Wass last week that the items were meant for a mystery man Woodrum had meant online named Hendrik Cornelius. “She was groomed to provide a financial gain for this person, Hendrik Cornelius, whatever person or persons it was behind this identity,” Neil said, according to the paper. “She went on this trip thinking she was bringing artifacts for him.” After a failed marriage and major health problems that led to crippling bills, Woodrum, a sister of the Adorers of the Blood of Christ, a religious order based in Kansas, believed she had met someone special online.

  1. Poor woman! I'm sorry she got caught. Had she been wearing a proper habit and proper nun-shoes, I think she'd have had a much better chance of not being stopped and questioned. I'll bet Mother Angelica never had any problems getting through immigration, customs etc.! Bet she sailed right through!

    BAM
