0

Convicted drug smuggler “Cocaine Cassie” Cassandra Sainsbury appears keen to move on from her past, with a surprising new career move.

Sainsbury, who was sentenced to up to six years in prison after smuggling 5.8 kg of cocaine in headphone boxes, has taken to Instagram to spruik her new job.

In a story posted to her Instagram this week, the Australian wrote: “For those who are interested in learning Spanish with me, I am offering Spanish classes starting in June”.

It is unclear where she plans to teach Spanish lessons and whether many of her 15,000 fans have taken her up on the offer.

Sainsbury is still in Colombia after being released from prison in 2020. However, she is required to stay in the country for a further 27 months on parole.

In an interview with 60 minutes, Sainsbury said she was offered $10,000 for a job, but did not realise it was to do with drugs.

She has also alleged a drug mule raped her, and that she was coerced into smuggling the cocaine by a man who said he would kill her mother and former fiancée if she refused.

In April 2017, at twenty-two years old, she was caught by police in Colombia at El Dorado airport on her way back to Australia. Over the next few year she lived with up to five fellow prisoners in a 4 square metre cell.

As she had accepted a plea deal, the six years she was originally required to serve was considerably shorter than her punishment could have been.

Ms Sainsbury is now, however, married to a Colombian computer technician who she encountered after being released.

In 2021 the former Adelaide resident announced she plans to work as a personal trainer again in Australia. In 2020 it was reported that she was allegedly selling nude photos and phone calls to make ends meet.

“I don’t always want to be known as ‘Cocaine Cassie’,” Ms Sainsbury told the Daily Mail Australia.

“All I really want to do is move on from all this and have my life back.”
