Twenty months compared to twenty years is OK. And she'll be out in half of that; so after 'time served' she'll only do about 6 or 7 months. However, if she'd got away with the 31 Keys is worth about £60K in bulk. So some might consider it well worth the risk.

 

Criminal record. Banned from travelling to America. She won't get any decent job anymore that requires a criminal background check. Hence why these people tend to pick up council estate Benidorm Brits. 

 

You see so many Benidormy Brits in Thailand at the moment, that would never have ventured there in the past. Dare i say it they all on the same game. 

She was lucky she was caught in the uk and not thailand

I doubt people would be that bothered about not going to America in the future, the record is the main thing like you say for some jobs, but as long as you've served your sentence and declared it on the application and it's non violent/fraud they really can't hold it against you for the average job otherwise no one would ever be employed again after serving time.

£4,500 and she was going to get paid £10,000 plus free flights?

 

If its £10 per gram, wouldn't that amount to £310,000 worth?

 

 

 

Read the OP's question.

 

I don’t believe Thai customs didn’t see this , or the others that got through.

   Easier for them to let it through and give UK customs a tip off and let them deal with it

You base this on any evidence? I doubt it. 

 

Reputational damage to Thailand has been enormous.
