Former Playboy model jailed in Australia for role in drug smuggling ring

SYDNEY – Former Playboy model Brandi Brandt was sentenced to up to six years in prison Friday for being part of a drug smuggling ring that brought cocaine to Australia.

Brandt, who was once married to Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx, pleaded guilty in April to a charge of conspiring to import drugs. Prosecutors said she was part of a drug syndicate that hid packages of cocaine on Qantas and United Airlines passenger planes that flew from California to Sydney in 2007.

Employees of an airline catering company allegedly collected the packages after the planes landed.

"She's had it tough — she had a pretty mixed-up childhood," he told the court during a sentencing hearing earlier this month. "She was using drugs as a teen, her father was using drugs. ... She replicated, in some sense, the lifestyle of her parents."

In the years between the drug ring's bust and her arrest and extradition to Australia in 2013, she'd reformed her life, gotten off drugs and found a job, Boulten said.

"She is unlikely to ever be in trouble again," he said.

Brandt will be eligible for parole in November 2016.
