Based on an affidavit presented to a US judge by an ICE agent, Gooden reportedly stated that her colleague, Constable Dremar Graham, who was later arrested, was the mastermind behind the smuggling operation, which also resulted in the arrest of Constable Travonne Davidson.
According to the US authorities, Gooden and Davidson travelled from Montego Bay in Jamaica on Delta flight 778, which landed at Hartsfield-Jackson Airport, Clayton County, in the Northern District of Georgia, where they were scheduled to connect to Delta 1022 to Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Gooden and Davidson were both arrested and charged for “knowingly possessing with intent to distribute at least 500 grams of cocaine, a schedule II controlled substance, and knowingly import or bring into the United States merchandise contrary to US law”.
The affidavit stated that Gooden waived her Miranda rights and provided text message and other incriminating information which tied Graham to the scheme.
It would appear, according to the affidavit, that Gooden provided the ICE agent with WhatsApp messages, texts, and phone messages, which implicated Graham.
