A woman from Kentucky was taken into custody at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, after a routine bag search reportedly uncovered illegal drugs hidden among her belongings.

Brandi Asher, 37, was arrested on May 20 during her visit to the Walt Disney World theme park. She never made it past the security checkpoint at the ticketing center. A security officer, during a bag check, discovered a “small tin can” and called the police. The officer shook the can without hearing any noise, but upon opening it, found a “long, white cylinder” resembling a pen and “two small, plastic baggies with a white substance.”

Asher reportedly told the officer the items were “goodies, headache powder.” However, a field test performed by police identified the “goodies” as methamphetamine.

The arrest affidavit states Asher became visibly anxious and began “shaking” when the items were found. She asked the officer to throw the substances away, but he refused. Allegedly, she then tried to hide the items in her pockets but was instructed to return them to the tin can.

A sheriff’s deputy later examined the find, noting “whiteish, clear, crystal-like substances inside the can” and identified a hollow tube used for snorting. The field test backed the deputy’s belief — Asher was reportedly carrying 1.5 grams of meth.

Once informed of her rights, Asher claimed a stranger at her hotel offered her the meth, which she accepted. She admitted not informing her husband about the drugs, believing they were in a different bag. Asher stated that she did not mean to bring the meth to Walt Disney World on that day.

Asher was escorted to the park’s security office where she was issued a trespass warning. She was handcuffed and taken into custody. After being booked on charges of felony possession of methamphetamine, she posted $5,000 bond and was released.

Through her attorney, Asher pleaded not guilty on June 1. Her next court date was not publicly available.
