Boseley, 30, and Lapointe, 61, are facing charges of conspiracy to distribute ecstasy after arriving at Orange County’s John Wayne Airport in possession of 40 kilograms of MDMA powder and 50,000 ecstasy pills, according to U.S. court documents.

Homeland Security agents received intelligence from another investigation “that the aircraft or its occupants may be involved in smuggling of narcotics or currency,” the documents said.

The agents watched as the Canadian pair disembarked from Lapointe’s small private plane just after noon last Thursday.

Boseley carried a brown Louis Vuitton purse, while Lapointe had a black and white checkered backpack. He also grabbed a suitcase from the plane and brought it into the terminal. As they were about to get into a rental vehicle, police stopped them and asked to search their bags. Both agreed.
