Court documents reveal that Jarvis pleaded guilty before Judge Eric N. Vitaliano, who has ordered a probation report before the date for sentencing is set.
On January 10 Jarvis was busted at the JFK airport attempting to smuggle just over 12 grammes of cocaine. Jarvis arrived at the JFK airport aboard Caribbean Airlines flight 522 from Guyana and had presented two suitcases, a black Olympia suitcase and a black Claiborne suitcase, to customs officials for inspection.
Upon inspection both suitcases were found to contain cocaine amounting to 12,172.7 grammes of cocaine. He had told officials that he knew the suitcases had cocaine and that he was paid US$5,000 to take it to the US.
