Pregnant teenager Bella Culley, who is accused of being a 'drug mule', will serve two years in prison after she reached a plea deal in Georgia. The 19-year-old was facing a life sentence in Georgia after allegedly smuggling illegal drugs into the country.

Bella, 19, today learned that she would have to serve two years in prison in Georgia, meaning she will have her baby inside an ex-Soviet jail after her family fell short of paying a huge fine in exchange for her freedom. Bella, who is 25 weeks pregnant, had pleaded and struck a deal to walk free with prosecutors. However, her bid to work free from jail was left in tatters after her family failed to raise cash for a £215,000 plea bargain deal.
