Quote of the Day

Drug smuggling is a tough business. You’ve got to find mules and possibly limber up orifices…no fun. But imagine the difficulty of smuggling in 15 pounds of cocaine through an American airport, a recent situation at Cincinnati’s airport which ended with the cocaine being found abandoned in a bathroom stall. My favorite part? The customs agent quoted is just so proud of his team finding 15 pounds of cocaine, as though it were a real difficult task.

Customs officers said they discovered nearly 15 pounds of cocaine Monday at the Cincinnati-Northern Kentucky International Airport.

A cleaning crew at the airport alerted federal agents to a suitcase found in a locked bathroom stall within the Federal Inspections Services area.

Officers said they found six bricks of cocaine wrapped in sweat pants inside the rolling carry-on suitcase, which carried no identification tags.

“There is no doubt that had the owner of the bag presented themselves for inspection, our officers would have found the cocaine and arrested the subject,” said David Murphy, director of field operations for U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
