Heredia was caught in the Dominican Republic with 2.9 pounds (1.3 kilograms) of heroin stuffed into her
platform shoes which were inside of her suitcase. The 22-year-old was crowned the winner of American Idol in 2009.
The Dominican Republic official said;
“It’s very sad that young people who have so much promise, who were bestowed by life with all the grace in the world and an unquestionable talent, because of ambition, bad advice or simply to obtain money see themselves in situations like this.”
This is not the first time the 22 year old also know as ‘La- Baby’ has been in the news for negative reasons since winning the show. In 2010 she killed a Haitian boy with her car and was made to compensate his family with $250,000 and just a month ago, she had her husband arrested for domestic violence, he is still in jail. So sad.
