The ex-wife of notorious “American Gangster” drug lord Frank Lucas is eyeing a possible plea deal for allegedly selling two kilos of cocaine to undercover drug agents.
A lawyer for Juliana Farrait-Rodriguez this afternoon won a 60-day delay of her case to continue negotiations with prosecutors.
The 63-year-old former beauty queen — whose dyed dirty-blonde locks are growing out white in jail — didn’t speak during her brief appearance in Manhattan federal court.
Defense lawyer Hugo Harmatz declined to comment afterward.
Farrait-Rodriguez, who was the inspiration for the “Eva” character in the 2007 flick in which Denzel Washington played her murderous ex-hubby, was allegedly caught in a DEA sting operation in Puerto Rico in May.
