Since 15 years prison time is rather a lot for failing to declare an item to Customs, the charges must have been something else. Still, they didn't even mention what the charges were, which was weird. Maybe voodoo is illegal in the U.S., like churches of Satan? Great example of how the U.S. is less tolerant than many other countries in matters of religion! I have a hard time even thinking of what the charges might be. Something related to murder? Disturbing a grave? Possible disease vector? That's probably why the article strangely neglected to say what the charges were: the charges would've been so ridiculous (especially to justify a 15-year prison sentence) that the public would've been more appalled at the laws than at the lady. What a bunch of B.S. harassment.
