A Brazilian social media influencer is now a fugitive after being accused of leading a large-scale cannabis trafficking organisation, according to Brazilian prosecutors. Melissa Said, who gained thousands of followers online posting luxury lifestyle content, is alleged to have played a key leadership role in a drug network responsible for distributing marijuana across multiple states in Brazil.
According to court documents cited in Brazilian media reports, authorities allege that Said was not merely associated with traffickers, but was actively directing parts of the operation. Police claim she helped facilitate bulk cannabis shipments, managed distribution routes and coordinated payments through front companies used to launder profits.
