It’s not the type of item you would expect a 24 year old to pack in her luggage for a trip overseas.
But the allegations don’t stop there. U.S. official claim that Fermanova tryed to smuggle the items which had “no visible identification stickers or markings” and key serial numbers were “covered with black marker pen”. Her lawyer calls the claims “silly”.

Lawyer Scott Palmer said the night vision scopes were being taken back to Russia for Anna Fermanova’s husband to be resold to possible animal hunters. Anna Fermanova moreover claims that she bought the scopes online, was unaware of any regulations regarding the scopes. ICE agents say she explained she “signed something about [regulations]” but was “not really sure what she was signing.” Reports claim that the Latvian born US citizen is under house arrest, living in Plano, Texas. Fermanova is out on $50,000 bail and set to appear in a Brooklyn court in July.
