• ACCUSED DRUG MULE’S LIFE AS A SEX WORKER

CASSIE Sainsbury’s fiance Scott Broadbridge landed in Sydney yesterday on his way home from visiting the alleged drug mule in Bogota.

Mr Broadbridge silently got on the bus escorted by a female Virgin staff member, ignoring all questions from a media pack, wearing the hint of a smile.

Along with Cassie’s mother Lisa Evans and sister Khala, he continued home to Adelaide.

He has continually defended Cassie’s honour, proclaiming her innocence.

She arrived in Bogota on April 4, he said, on a trip funded by a mystery couple, Karen and Jane Doloshok.

The headphones, in which the authorities allegdly found 5.8kg of cocaine when she arrived at El Dorado Airport bound for Australia, had been bought for their bridal party, he maintained.

She was arrested on April 13 and has been held since at Bogota’s notorious El Buen Pastor jail.

However, Cassie is alleged to have spun a web of deceit around her life, with a madam at a brothel in Western Sydney claiming yesterday that she was a sex worker.

Pamela Fenechi said she worked at Club 220 in Penrith because she was in debt and trying to support her penniless boyfriend.

She said: “She was a sweet girl and very depressed.”

CONFLICTING STORIES OF COCAINE CASSIE SAGA

THE FIANCE

Scott Broadbridge says Cassie arrived in Bogota on April 4 funded by mystery couple Karen and June Doloshok, who she claims to have worked for as a cleaner.

She met a man called Angelo, a guide Broadbridge says she encountered in a “side street or market”, who it is now claimed works for a drugs cartel.

“She saw headphones in market/side street, she asked for them for bridal party,” Broadridge said, adding Angelo told her: “I know a guy … can get them for you cheaply.”

On April 13 Sainsbury is arrested after cocaine is found in the headphones.

One of Broadbridge’s exes has been accused of drug-dealing, putting him now under investigation by the AFP. He says he is “in shock” and has never “ever” dealt drugs. He also insists Cassie has never dealt drugs.

THE CLEANERS

Scott Broadbridge says Cassie was working for cleaning company set up by uncle, Neil Sainsbury, who later sold it to Karen and June Doloshok. This mysterious couple paid for her trip to Colombia. However, they don’t appear to exist.

Neil Sainsbury, a former military investigator, says he’s never owned a cleaning business or employed his niece.

Cassie flew regularly for eight months to Sydney to meet the Doloshok’s clients, who paid her $1800 a week in cash, Broadbridge claims. Eventually the couple offered her a chance to meet new clients overseas.

THE MUM

Cassie’s mother Lisa Evans has denied suggestions of having a “mother’s blind faith”, maintaining her daughter is innocent.

“It goes against everything she stands for,” she said. “She’s 100 per cent innocent. I believe that and I always will.”

THE ACCUSED

On April 13, Cassie Sainsbury was arrested at El Dorado Airport, Bogota on drug trafficking charges after cocaine was found in her case. She claims she is innocent and never knew about the drugs.

She has since changed her story to say she is the victim of an international drug syndicate which forced her to smuggle cocaine by threatening her life and those of her family.

Her lawyers say she has begged Colombian authorities and Australian Federal Police to put her into a witness protection program.

THE GYM

Reports that mounting debts forced her to close down her Yorke’s Fitness gym led her to answer a Craigslist ad offering a loan and trip to London.

Scott Broadbridge says Yorke Fitness was her business but she owed no money.

Cassie Sainsbury when she owned Yorke’s Fitness in Yorketown in 2015.

“She has no debts and if something fails, she’ll just try something else, she’s very ambitious and head strong,” he said.

THE DAD

Cassie’s father, Stuart Sainsbury, said she and Broadbridge had planned – as early as January – to visit Colombia. He claimed they had an argument after he warned her not to do anything “stupid”, and she reassured him she wouldn’t go.

THE BROTHEL

Claims Cassie was a prostitute known to be operating under the pseudonym Claudia at Club 220 in Penrith from August to December

Former brothel workers who knew Sainsbury say she boasted she was getting engaged on a cruise ship in February and her fiance knew about her sex work.

The brothel in Penrith where Cassie allegedly worked, Club 220.

One sex worker said Sainsbury had been operating as a FIFO (fly in, fly out) worker, commuting from Adelaide to work at the Sydney brothel.

There are reports she pretended her mother died from MS to win the sympathy of fellow sex workers, who then gave her money to pay for the funeral.

One sex worker friend says she only discovered Cassie’s mother was alive when she saw her on the news protesting Sainsbury’s innocence.
