Husband of Bermuda official arrested in US$15M marijuana ring
HAMILTON, Bermuda: U.S. federal drug agents announced Thursday that they busted a drug ring in New Jersey that shipped US$15 million worth of marijuana to Bermuda.

U.S. court documents show the husband of a member of the British dependency's Parliament is among two men arrested after agents seized 700 pounds (318 kilograms) of marijuana at an Orange, New Jersey, warehouse last week.

The drugs had an estimated street value of $15 million in the tiny British enclave in the Atlantic. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration said the raid was the culmination of a yearlong operation involving Bermudian investigators.

Court papers say Dennis "King" Pamplin and Brian Henry of Bloomfield had shipped 2,000 pounds (907 kilograms) of marijuana inside concrete columns from Port Newark since last summer.

Pamplin's estranged wife, Patricia Gordon-Pamplin, is deputy leader of the United Bermuda Party. Court papers say Pamplin was found living in New Rochelle, New York, with a girlfriend.

His lawyer says the 58-year-old suspect is innocent.

The suspect and the Bermudian politician have been married for 15 years and have two sons together. He has lived in the United States in recent years.

Gordon-Pamplin, who is also vice president and chief accountant at Everest Reinsurance, said that she has no involvement in the case.

"I have had support from my colleagues," she told reporters. "This situation will play itself out in the court of law and I have no control over its outcome."
