      I call bullshit. Do you know how much fentanyl you have to take to overdose with a non-opioid familiar person? About 2mg, so a couple of grains of sugar. It takes quite a while to get sick from opiates, it doesn’t happen overnight. So you were doing this fentanyl/coke for weeks long enough to get hooked to be sick, then you suddenly overdosed? Bullshit. I was a heroin addict for 12 years and this sound like nonsense.

    I was a police spokesperson for a while and I "covered" some drug trafficking operations between South(Central) America and Europe. As for the female smuggler: sending a petite woman for the first time, the cartel would do a mock test to check how the woman behaves with authorities, with perhaps ONE portion (condom) - and sometimes it could even be powdered sugar (!!). And two, some drug manufacturers would use Europeans, in other words the smuggler would be returning home with the drugs, which is more innocent than a South American solo traveler coming with them. I know of two Czech women (previously sentenced) who had "Venezuelan boyfriends there" and they would traffic drugs to Europe on their return journeys (of course, you are coming home), instead of Colombian women traveling alone to Europe for some reason, even "visiting sister".

High level stuff. One container was accidentally picked up by a normal driver. They shot with Ak47's to "convince" the driver to get off the truck.

    The only problem with "Los Pollos" UV star stamp scene would be that it wouldn't be stamped on the lids but the actual bucket. The lids can be switched if someone had I'll intentions.

    • @danlorett2184
      @danlorett2184 2 роки тому +12

      The lids they're putting on those buckets aren't normal bucket lids. They can only be easily removed if you remove the plastic tear strip on the bottom of the bucket lid. It may be possible to remove the lids without removing the tear strip if you heat the lid in boiling water to make it more pliable, but you would ruin the fry batter and it would be obvious that the bucket had be tampered with.
      Actually a pretty ingenious way of transporting drugs.
      Edit: also if they can get the bucket open to swap the lid, they can just as easily swap the bucket itself too. If you get one of those lids off without messing up the tear strip then it's trivial to put it back on a bucket because that's the way they are made to be used anyways.
