Weed on the border

Federal authorities arrested Margarita Crispin this morning at the Pas Del Norte Bridge and charged her with conspiracy to import a controlled substance.  

According to an indictment, from June 2003 until July 2007, Crispin conspired with others to import more than 1,000 kilograms of marijuana into the United States.  

Federal authorities say Crispin knowingly allowed loads of marijuana to pass through her port of entry lanes unchecked.  

Crispin remains in federal custody.  Her initial appearance is expected to occur Monday afternoon in U.S. Magistrate Court in El Paso.http://www.kdbc.com/news/local/8767862.html
