Following a jury trial, Silvia Covarrubias was convicted of possession with the intent to distribute more than five kilograms of cocaine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a), and was sentenced to 121 months of imprisonment. She challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support her conviction, asserting the evidence was insufficient to prove she knew cocaine was in a hidden compartment in the automobile she was driving.

The Government presented ample circumstantial evidence, in addition to Covarrubias’ control of the vehicle in which the drugs were found, from which the jury could reasonably infer her guilty knowledge. She exhibited nervousness, both when the drug-detecting canine alerted to her vehicle in secondary inspection and during questioning by an Agent. Testimony established the hidden compartment required highly-skilled and extensive labor; it further established the work was recent, and the cocaine had been freshly packaged, with no sign it had been in the engine for a long period of time. In that regard, Covarrubias admitted the vehicle had been in her exclusive control for the preceding three months, and she provided *505 no explanation for the drugs being in her vehicle. Instead, she offered an improbable story regarding the vehicle’s purchase and registration. Likewise, she gave Agents inconsistent statements regarding her purchase of the vehicle and where she was going on the date of her arrest; the latter statements were further contradicted by her alibi witness both prior to, and during, trial.

These factors were sufficient for a reasonable juror to find guilty knowledge beyond a reasonable doubt. See United States v. Ortega Reyna, 148 F.3d 540, 544 (5th Cir. 1998); see also United States v. Diaz-Carreon, 915 F.2d 951, 954-55 (5th Cir. 1990) (“Perhaps the strongest evidence of a criminal defendant’s guilty knowledge is inconsistent statements to federal officials.”). Additionally, the substantial quantity and value of the cocaine found provides further support for the jury’s verdict. See United States v. Villarreal, 324 F.3d 319, 324 (5th Cir. 2003); United States v. Ramos-Garda, 184 F.3d 463, 466 (5th Cir. 1999).

AFFIRMED.
