Brutal, the title makes it sound like she was making a profit or something but she just didn't know to declare her research and that's considered smuggling wtf

They're definitely throwing the whole book at her. But there's also a small nugget of a case here. Having been through customs a few times, I think it's clear that biological materials should be declared. In a normal situation, the infraction would lead to a long wait in the back room, a stern warning, and maybe confiscated embryos. Not felony charges.
