Porn star former Uruguay footballer WAG ‘is caught with more than 14lb of cocaine at airport’

  • Mia Etcheverria previously dated retired international footballer Richard Morales
  • The adult film star denied via her lawyer that she knew about the drugs stash

A former porn star and ex-girlfriend of a Uruguayan international footballer has reportedly been caught at an airport with suitcases containing more than 14lb of cocaine.

Mia Etcheverria, who was once in a relationship with retired footballer Richard Morales, has been identified as one of the three women and two men arrested at Uruguay’s Carrasco International Airport after the discovery.

The 27-year-old model’s lawyer, Pablo Casas, is claiming that his client ‘was unaware of the contents of the suitcases’.

Etcheverria, whose real name is Camila Navarro, is from Las Piedras in southern Uruguay, and was one of the main stars on the country’s adult channel Divas TV.

She has two daughters with 48-year-old Morales – who was nicknamed Chengue during his footballing career and represented his country as a centre forward in the 2002 World Cup. 

Following Etcheverria’s arrest, Morales has said he will pay her legal fees and that his priority is their daughters.

Etcheverria was allegedly part of the group attempting to board a flight to Madrid, Spain, when they were rumbled by the Uruguayan police during a routine check on one of the men on June 24.

Officers found that his two suitcases had hidden compartments containing six slabs of a white, powdery substance with a total weight of 6.5 kilogrammes (14lb 5oz).

The police then pulled aside the rest of his group – three women, aged 26, 27, and 36, and a 35-year-old man.

Four, including Etcheverria, are said to be in custody as the police search for a sixth person in relation to the case.

As well as the drugs stash, two vehicles allegedly used for the group’s transportation were identified, and 900 euros and four mobile phones were seized from them 

The Ministry of the Interior of Uruguay said in a statement: ‘In the morning hours of Saturday, June 24, personnel from the Carrasco International Airport Delegation, belonging to the General Directorate for the Repression of Illicit Drug Trafficking (DGRTID), were conducting checks in the check-in area of a flight bound for Madrid when they detected a passenger with a possible risk profile.

‘After verifying his itinerary, a routine inspection of his luggage was requested, which the passenger authorised. He was escorted to the inspection room while the three women travelling with him remained in the check-in area.

‘Once in the inspection room, the passenger was identified as a 29-year-old Uruguayan citizen. 

‘Upon inspecting his luggage, a hidden compartment was found in both of his suitcases, containing six slabs of white powdered substance in each. 

‘After weighing it, the total weight of the substance was determined to be 6.502 kilogrammes, testing positive for the presence of cocaine.

‘As a result, the personnel in the check-in area were notified, and they escorted the women, who were 26, 27, and 36-year-old Uruguayan citizens, to another inspection room.
