Arizona Mother Yanira Maldonado Says Drug Smuggling Charges in Mexico a 'Nightmare'
An Arizona mother of seven choked back tears while trying to make sense of how she went from sitting on a bus in Mexico to a jail cell, accused of smuggling drugs, and now at the mercy of the country's justice system.
Yanira Maldonado said the events of the past week have been a "nightmare," but is holding out hope that she will soon be released because she has "nothing to hide."
Maldonado, 42, denies that she was trying to smuggle 12 pounds of marijuana under her bus seat May 22 as she and her husband, Gary, were heading back to the United States after attending a funeral.
