The Mega AgencyA tearful Kim is pictured in a police mug shot after being caught with two cases of cocaine at Chicago’s O’Hare airport[/caption]
“I’m not a bad person. I’ve never been in trouble in my life and I’m not guilty of what they are accusing me of.
“I didn’t knowingly smuggle drugs.
“I’m not a drug trafficker and I’m going to fight to prove my innocence with every bone in my body.”
Hall claims two men she met in Portugal offered her a free holiday to Cancun but once there they threatened her and forced her to carry the bags back to Britain.
She says she was told they were packed with $250,000 in cash and had no idea she was actually carrying drugs.
The hearing takes place Wednesday in Chicago.
