I agree! She tried to seem so hardass as if she was going to catch this normal woman traveling for her business with tons of cocaine on the way back and the look of embarrassment on her face for wasting not only the woman’s time who was traveling but her colleagues as well. Definitely not her first time for falsely accusing a traveler for bringing in contraband. I know she wanted to show out for the cameras and it backfired so well 😂 all of the travelers story checked out.
That woman was "too calm" because she wasn't lying and had nothing to hide. Why was that so hard to accept or believe? Not everyone has ulterior motives.
Inflated ego causes inability to take accountability for a wrongful belief. These people are some of the worst kinds of "law enforcement" to deal with because they're so obsessed with the little power they get on the clock.
I feel like the "Innocent lady" that didn't know about her suitcase was actually just there to distract law enforcement for a prolonged search, while 10s of other actual smugglers slipped past.
She's too calm? That was perfect, as they always say they are suspicious because they are too nervous. Sounds like she's innocent. I don't book my hotels when I travel; I don't know exactly what time I will be at a certain town.
Courtesy of these 2 officers. Can't say they're not thorough. They didn't catch the big fish they were hoping for though. Maybe less stereotyping every now and then

Compared to border control officers of other countries like Great Britain or Australia, US officers seem to be not that much trained in respectful manners and in acting professional.
What's wrong with that fool? Is that the first time as a border control officer, you will check the bags of travellers from Africa, Asia, Caribbean? They carry exotic food items. Rather than barking, talking to her in a demeaning way and wrinkling his nose at her food (2:26), just check her bags with a lil bit more respect and if you see anything incriminating, arrest her!

@@littlejackalo5326 No it's not. You waste time profiling innocent people because it fits YOUR stereotype of them which is probably wrong anyway. Smugglers smarter than you know this and push people they know won't get flagged if they've observed the officers overflagging certain travellers.
The look on the face of the latina customs officer when the business tourist/passenger/traveler wasn't guilty of anything. The passenger was in her eyes guilty (when she had nothing to be guilty of) and had to prove herself to be innocent. The women just came for business and was judged to MUST be guilty of god know something. Watching it I felt so uneasy how she was harassed. Don't get me wrong. I know that their job is to control overseas passengers and to be firm when dealing with people. I appreciate their job! But they also must be polite, patient and helpful. Today you are the controller and the next you are the traveler.

Why would you appreciate these losers jobs? They get paid to “look hard” for drugs that should be decriminalized in the first place and we wouldn’t have this “problem” to begin with
@@TANTHEMANFILMS I don't think you get the point. If you find a story confusing, surely you'll have doubts. Plus they know how desperate some people are. It's just officers instinct,plus you saw when Pupo said "what if she doesn't get what she's looking for? What was the purpose of the trip?" So basically,as much as they believed her,they didn't.
I’ve done security and most are ones who’s could make the academy and do too much or those you wanna be a cop bad.there are lazy ones and the ones who do a job and leave
The female patrol officer and her partner came off hella arrogant and aggressive towards the Trinidadian woman. We get it. You have to do you job, but geez! Show some respect too! Talking to your partner in another language in the woman's presence. These folk letting a badge n gun get to their heads . What's new?
I thought exactly the same thing. I was so glad she came for her return flight and she had stock and receipts. Full respect to Miss Trini cos she handled herself with dignity
She's just carrying her uncle's luggage and doesn't even know his name....yep I believe that one-NOT. Her cousin's husband who's also her uncle? This is the worst lie I've heard. I've been stopped too by an ambitious customs officer I have to admit I was furious and people like this lady make things worse.
Remember you don't have to answer any questions so she was doing the right thing by being invasive and she probably knew that she didn't have anything that he can lock her up for this is the cost of doing business sometimes you make a win sometimes you take a loss
Hypocrisy at finest. When somebody trying smuggling few grams of coke it's big issue. When CIA smuggled few tons - it's absolutely ok. BTW remind me, how long this war on drugs thing is going on ? And what is results ?
@14:08, wow I feel bad for these officers if they really think their prescription medication overdose problem is because of smugglers...as if the actual pharmaceutical companies in America don't have anything to do with prescription medication addiction and deaths.
Illegal drugs are far more dangerous than Rx drugs. With an Rx drugs, you know EXACTLY how much active ingredient is in it. Heroin and fentanyl laced heroin are extremely hard to judge the contents. Far more people accidentally overdose (and sometimes die) from fentanyl laced heroin, fake heroin, and counterfeit oxycodone pills than they do from RX drugs. Blaming a drug company is like blaming a car company for drunk driving accidents. Derrrrrp. See how dumb that sounds?
The problem is that the government do not make money from the pharmaceutical when they are brought from abroad. Not because is illegal, I mean those kinds of medications are so expensive in the US and cheap in other country. So, if they are brought into the US, that means loss for the government.
This what i don't understand it's she alone traveling and have so many medications and didn't seclared nothing she's very lucky that they didn't aress her. Sometimes it is we causes thing's to happen to us.
I imagine there's some element of truth to this statement. The safety of citizens taking medication from other nations that don't have the same quality control measures as the US among other things is also a concern.
What? The border agent returned the “Neo-Codion” to the traveler - so it was _not_ prohibited? Yet, he chided her, and warned her not to bring it in again. So, which is it? Allowed? Or prohibited?
If you paid attention, he told her not to bring it in again but let her go with it because of the tiny amount in the pills. It’s a gray area but he was Forsure power tripping over it and trying to make himself look good on tv. It backfired hard. Lol
I laughed so hard at the intro stating "they are presumed innocent until proven guilty" 🤣 This isn't the 80s or 90s. We live in "presumed guilty until proven innocent" culture now.
they treat people like criminals, question them, go over their stuff and their phone as if there is no such thing as privacy. disgusting animals abusing their power
This should be a teachable moment for the officers in the Trinidad passenger scenario. They need to sit in a room and watch their behavior and then be retrained. This is not a cartoon. It is a humiliating and degrading experience and they should be more professional. All that side bar is uncalled for 🤷🏽♀️
It's a little weird that she was going to stay here for only one day. If I flew to Trinidad it wouldn't be for only one day. Trinidad has border security too, you know. Everybody does. Also, it's weird that they couldn't verify anything she said to them, and she was using a debit card that didn't have her name on it. It's not common to check someone's ID to make sure it matches the debit card, but if anyone did, they would question what's going on, right? There's several factors that lead them to question her more: -coming here for only one day -contact doesn't answer phone -doesn't have hotel set up already -has debit card with someone else's name -coming from Trinidad, which Homeland Security had identified as a common source of addictive narcotics Their job is to help protect the national security of the USA. OF COURSE they are going to look into something like that. Turned out to be nothing, but it was a little weird. If you were a border security officer, you would have questioned her, too.
The customs officer needs to be fired,she profiled that woman for no reason and that was so much for her.I’m from the Caribbean and I’d never want to go through that.
We got stopped and searched at the airport because my husband had a bunch of bags of gummy bears in his suitcase. We all laughed at the time and the agent was super nice. Now that I’ve watched a number of these videos I can see how they looked unusual on the X-ray.
Totally agree! Then the female officer talked about how calm she was because she had obviously gone thru this before... Nah she was calm because she was innocent!!
really enjoyed the episode; the storytelling was on point and kept me hooked! that said, I can't help but wonder if showcasing these smuggling tactics could glamorize drug culture in some way. I mean, there's a fine line between educating and sensationalizing, right?
The 2 police officers really need to stop being so petty and unprofessional…. I love how the Trinidad lady proved tht female officer wrong, all tht because you picked on her I would of told tht female officer where to go she’s rude and petty. Must be miserable
They were beyond petty and too judgmental for my liking. Those comments that they stated regarding her being low income, supporting herself in the U.S. and they kept questioning her finances. I need them to take several seats as not everyone from the Caribbean is poor and struggling for money. Average people in the Caribbean have better savings account that some folks here in the U.S. I know lots of people who come to Miami for a day or two, shop in the shopping district in Miami, near the airport, make quick turnaround back to the Islands. I've seen a lot however I've never seen Customs waiting to search a passenger designated for an outbound flight leaving the U.S.
Smugglers are a tricky bunch sometimes they pose as innocent people. That's why the get stopped. Can you tell the difference between a smuggler and a innocent person just by looking at them?
@@marathongman9281 Speaking to each other in spanish and the lady could not understand them, making comments about her, coming back for the lady as she is leaving the country after she had cleared security...They were very unprofessional and racially biased.
@@sk_princessS Exactly, i have a friend from Bahamas whose family would come to the US on a Friday and leave on Sunday and she told me a lot of people from the islands come to shop or just for the week end. The flights are not even that long and it's the same time zone, not sure why people are surprised. It looks like the agents are the one who are poor LOL
In a later interview: "My wife tried to dissuade me from smuggling". Cop: "But you said your wife didn't know about it. Why should we believe you now when you were lying to us before?". Diy you really think this through?
He was hilarious with his facial expression and comments. Soooo different when watching mire professional border agents in Australia. Loved the comment " just don't do it" sounds like an ad for abstaining from drugs. In both these cases the statement works!
I've never felt more publicly shamed than I have felt watching how the US deals with non nationals compared to other nations. Canada has struck me as setting a hard line. In the US the agents are cruel. These videos compiled strike me as the best case scenario. Not a good look.
What nonsense! The US agents are just as nice as any other country or much more professional. Have you seen how they deal with you in Iran, China, India, Italy, France? Check them out. Be proud you have effective and courteous agents.
I'm loving the customs officer that handled the couple with the codeine. He was very professional, soft spoken, yet, firm with the rules and the warnings.
38:22 Did homeboy really just pick up that cocaine shoe and sniff it after he already punctured the package to double check to make sure it was what it was???… LMAO I seriously can’t even right now I’m dying that’s so hilarious. 😂😂😂
As an African you can find yourself behind the bars easily when u travel there is always a family member asking u to carry something for them they’ll give you a bag well packed sometimes even taped you won’t think they might do such thing to you and it’s really hard to say no
I’m Central American and our family customs are similar, we can’t say no to an elder so now I tell them “it’s illegal for me to take anything packaged and it has to be in a clear bag or else I can’t take it” which made my family not ask me at all or they send really small items now.
I remember my mom, dad and aunts back in the day brining lots of items for people to bring back as gifts etc. now my advice to them is to not bring anything back they haven’t packed and open themselves. Personally when I travel overseas I pack all my own stuff and throughly inspect my luggage for any tempering an hour before I leave and hold my own luggage from the room and put in in the trunk. I help with the removal as well and keep it close to me at all times at the airport.
It’s not that serious they don’t hate them for being innocent but obviously it is irritating pursuing an innocent person. It takes time away from getting someone who actually does have drugs or whatever
Wasting all that time over a few boxes of codeine. Insane! Yet you let someone walk away after being a captain on a ship with 400lbs of cocaine. Absolutely ZERO common sense
@@williamwilson6499 yeah he was, but only after they let him walk. It's not like were talking a few grams, dude had 400lbs and they let him walk, then spent tax dollars and risked lives on a raid to catch him, sorry, but the "genius" in me doesn't see the common sense in that, especially since I was arrested and locked up for A LOT less!
@@mekhig.9350 so why even bother? the war on drugs costs north america trillions and results in excess crime and deaths, and all that to only intercept what, maybe 10%?. They mainly only care because since it's not taxed they aren't able to rip money out of the consumers and distributors hands. They don't care about the drugs itself.
35:32 to the genius that said “just one day? Is that enough time to shop?” Doesn’t he have a wife? My girl will fill a couple shopping carts in an hour 🤣 Plus, the lady she already knows where to go and I’m sure buys same item in many sizes, one day is enough. Also, more days means more hotel nights, which means more costs. She has it all figured it out, she should probably take your job and send you shopping lol
8:18 They're anti-biotics, to mix with homemade remedies. I remember my mother using this on my stomach when broken glass pierced through my belly button.

What's wrong with that fool? Is that the first time as a border control officer, you will check the bags of travellers from Africa, Asia, Caribbean? They carry exotic food items. Rather than barking, talking to her in a demeaning way and wrinkling his nose at her food (2:26), just check her bags with a lil bit more respect and if you see anything incriminating, arrest her!

"So many negatives but when we hit it's a good feeling"
Why isn't it a better feeling when you find the person isn't doing wrong!?
I thought exactly the same thing
... because while you were searching that one, it means you missed one that was actually guilty?
@@dkroll92 that doesn't explain why it isn't an even better feeling when they find no wrong doing, it's more like they on preying on the misdeeds of people and relishing in it!
They are there to catch illegal activity. It is not their job to be welcoming. Leave that to the tourism agency.

“You can’t judge these people by race, gender, or how they look.”

@@littlejackalo5326 what?
@@littlejackalo5326 No it's not. You waste time profiling innocent people because it fits YOUR stereotype of them which is probably wrong anyway. Smugglers smarter than you know this and push people they know won't get flagged if they've observed the officers overflagging certain travellers.
IT'S CALLED PROFILING, THEY SAY YOU CANT BECAUSE IT'S AGAINST THE LAW IN A WAY, A TYPE OF DISCRIMINATION

The look on the face of the latina customs officer when the business tourist/passenger/traveler wasn't guilty of anything. The passenger was in her eyes guilty (when she had nothing to be guilty of) and had to prove herself to be innocent. The women just came for business and was judged to MUST be guilty of god know something. Watching it I felt so uneasy how she was harassed. Don't get me wrong. I know that their job is to control overseas passengers and to be firm when dealing with people. I appreciate their job! But they also must be polite, patient and helpful. Today you are the controller and the next you are the traveler.
But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Romans 3:21-24 💙✨
Why would you appreciate these losers jobs? They get paid to “look hard” for drugs that should be decriminalized in the first place and we wouldn’t have this “problem” to begin with

totally agree, the power gets in their heads for sure!
They thought they could intimidate her…..
I thought exactly the same thing. I was so glad she came for her return flight and she had stock and receipts. Full respect to Miss Trini cos she handled herself with dignity
Who are they too call here daughter?
Thats how most u.s. customs behave. Very arrogant.
She's just carrying her uncle's luggage and doesn't even know his name....yep I believe that one-NOT. Her cousin's husband who's also her uncle? This is the worst lie I've heard. I've been stopped too by an ambitious customs officer I have to admit I was furious and people like this lady make things worse.
Remember you don't have to answer any questions so she was doing the right thing by being invasive and she probably knew that she didn't have anything that he can lock her up for this is the cost of doing business sometimes you make a win sometimes you take a loss
I know, what an L lol

@14:08, wow I feel bad for these officers if they really think their prescription medication overdose problem is because of smugglers...as if the actual pharmaceutical companies in America don't have anything to do with prescription medication addiction and deaths.
Exactly. FDA and Pharma paying them to stop the cheaper medicine from everywhere else in the world
😂🤦🤦🤦🤦
Illegal drugs are far more dangerous than Rx drugs. With an Rx drugs, you know EXACTLY how much active ingredient is in it. Heroin and fentanyl laced heroin are extremely hard to judge the contents. Far more people accidentally overdose (and sometimes die) from fentanyl laced heroin, fake heroin, and counterfeit oxycodone pills than they do from RX drugs. Blaming a drug company is like blaming a car company for drunk driving accidents. Derrrrrp. See how dumb that sounds?
it's more so the fent that they wanna stop from coming in

“It’s not mine. It’s my uncle’s.” Why is it always the uncle? 😂
The problem is that the government do not make money from the pharmaceutical when they are brought from abroad. Not because is illegal, I mean those kinds of medications are so expensive in the US and cheap in other country. So, if they are brought into the US, that means loss for the government.
This what i don't understand it's she alone traveling and have so many medications and didn't seclared nothing she's very lucky that they didn't aress her. Sometimes it is we causes thing's to happen to us.
Yea thats it. You really uncovered the conspiracy.
If it’s not approved by fda to put their stamp on it as well as tax it then gov doesn’t care
I imagine there's some element of truth to this statement. The safety of citizens taking medication from other nations that don't have the same quality control measures as the US among other things is also a concern.
The problem is that, these medications are not certified in the USA so they pose a health danger to people. You don't know what's in it
I love the customs officer speaking broken Spanish to a Vietnamese couple. Yay the US education system.
They’re not concerned about peoples health with foreign medications, they’re mad Uncle Sam isn’t getting his tax cut
Exactly!!! They are mad that these people won't come here and spend all their money on the ultra expensive drugs here.
Everyone turns into Sgt. Schultz at Customs, "I know NOTHING!"
What? The border agent returned the “Neo-Codion” to the traveler - so it was _not_ prohibited? Yet, he chided her, and warned her not to bring it in again. So, which is it? Allowed? Or prohibited?
yeah, he was a clown.

@@random-de9ft I'm glad you called it like it is. Your type gets rarer and rarer by the day.

@@nancyjones1930 is there an echo in here?
This should be a teachable moment for the officers in the Trinidad passenger scenario. They need to sit in a room and watch their behavior and then be retrained. This is not a cartoon. It is a humiliating and degrading experience and they should be more professional. All that side bar is uncalled for 🤷🏽♀️
yes in reference to the trini lady.. that fat custom guy was definitely rude .
When they were initially walking away from the camera with her, they started speaking Spanish to one another.. Immediately irritated me.
It's a little weird that she was going to stay here for only one day. If I flew to Trinidad it wouldn't be for only one day. Trinidad has border security too, you know. Everybody does.
Also, it's weird that they couldn't verify anything she said to them, and she was using a debit card that didn't have her name on it. It's not common to check someone's ID to make sure it matches the debit card, but if anyone did, they would question what's going on, right?
There's several factors that lead them to question her more:
-coming here for only one day
-contact doesn't answer phone
-doesn't have hotel set up already
-has debit card with someone else's name
-coming from Trinidad, which Homeland Security had identified as a common source of addictive narcotics
Their job is to help protect the national security of the USA. OF COURSE they are going to look into something like that. Turned out to be nothing, but it was a little weird. If you were a border security officer, you would have questioned her, too.
I always watch these cause it’s calming and fun to watch bro
The customs officer needs to be fired,she profiled that woman for no reason and that was so much for her.I’m from the Caribbean and I’d never want to go through that.

really enjoyed the episode; the storytelling was on point and kept me hooked! that said, I can't help but wonder if showcasing these smuggling tactics could glamorize drug culture in some way. I mean, there's a fine line between educating and sensationalizing, right?
The 2 police officers really need to stop being so petty and unprofessional…. I love how the Trinidad lady proved tht female officer wrong, all tht because you picked on her I would of told tht female officer where to go she’s rude and petty. Must be miserable
They were beyond petty and too judgmental for my liking. Those comments that they stated regarding her being low income, supporting herself in the U.S. and they kept questioning her finances. I need them to take several seats as not everyone from the Caribbean is poor and struggling for money. Average people in the Caribbean have better savings account that some folks here in the U.S. I know lots of people who come to Miami for a day or two, shop in the shopping district in Miami, near the airport, make quick turnaround back to the Islands. I've seen a lot however I've never seen Customs waiting to search a passenger designated for an outbound flight leaving the U.S.
Smugglers are a tricky bunch sometimes they pose as innocent people. That's why the get stopped. Can you tell the difference between a smuggler and a innocent person just by looking at them?

I've never felt more publicly shamed than I have felt watching how the US deals with non nationals compared to other nations. Canada has struck me as setting a hard line. In the US the agents are cruel. These videos compiled strike me as the best case scenario. Not a good look.
I've heard Canadian CPB are also very intense. Have you seen the show Canadian Border Force?
Lol there trying to stop contraband - you can’t be nice and have people take advantage of you.
What nonsense! The US agents are just as nice as any other country or much more professional. Have you seen how they deal with you in Iran, China, India, Italy, France? Check them out. Be proud you have effective and courteous agents.

As an African you can find yourself behind the bars easily when u travel there is always a family member asking u to carry something for them they’ll give you a bag well packed sometimes even taped you won’t think they might do such thing to you and it’s really hard to say no
I would not accept it for security reasons
@sunsetblessing4106 yes that’s the right thing to do
I’m Central American and our family customs are similar, we can’t say no to an elder so now I tell them “it’s illegal for me to take anything packaged and it has to be in a clear bag or else I can’t take it” which made my family not ask me at all or they send really small items now.
I remember my mom, dad and aunts back in the day brining lots of items for people to bring back as gifts etc. now my advice to them is to not bring anything back they haven’t packed and open themselves. Personally when I travel overseas I pack all my own stuff and throughly inspect my luggage for any tempering an hour before I leave and hold my own luggage from the room and put in in the trunk. I help with the removal as well and keep it close to me at all times at the airport.
Yeah every time we go to Rwanda family asks us to take stuff for them
I feel like they get a little irritated when then find nothing, like they hate them a bit for being innocent and for stopping them makin' a "catch" .
