Did Arrestee at Border Pucker Up With a Meth Mouth?

Categories: Crime-iny

Four pounds of crystal meth were found taped inside the jacket of a woman at the San Clemente border checkpoint Sunday morning, according to the feds.

The 34-year-old Chula Vista woman (and yes, haters, U.S. citizen) was riding in a van headed north on the 5 freeway. When she got out of the van, a search dog alerted officers that she was carrying, say U.S. Border Patrol officials.

They estimated the meth to be worth $70,000.

Of course, the big question is whether the woman's booking photo resembled that of the meth-head below:

Yeah, that photo is from Faces of Meth. I've seen the Lisa Ling special and the slideshow on the KTLA website. Why don't you put up the real booking photo??
