Driver Leaves Behind Load of Cocaine Worth $1.25 Million (TX)
    #14147041 - 03/19/11 03:09 AM (12 years, 10 months ago)

KRGV.com

HIDALGO - Police in Hidalgo are trying to find out how more than $1 million worth of cocaine was smuggled into the United States.

An officer tried pulling a man over on North Bridge Street on Wednesday morning. The driver took off running and got away, leaving behind the load of cocaine worth $1.25 million on the streets in the backseat of a Mitsubishi Montero.

Police and ICE agents are taking a close look at how the drugs were packaged. They hope that will provide clues about how the load was brought into the United States.

my guess would be by mexicans with inner-tubes. but thats just my assumption. all that money for equipment and manpower and some guy making $20 a day beats you with a re-purposed truck tire inner-tube. it's gotta be devastating to their self esteem.

You think that his higher ups will have him killed.  Do you think they execute every failed smuggler.  I am guessing they do.  Maybe he fucked up some how and blew his cover.

This guy lost $1.25 worth of blow.  He was trusted with a lot.

Not enough details.  The cartels, believe it or not, aren't crazy, insane or diabolical.  They are business men.

Sometimes packages don't make it through.  You don't kill every failed smuggling attempt or very soon you have no one wanting to smuggle packages.

WHY this attempt failed is probably much more important.  If the driver made a mistake of some sort he will be held liable.

If not he will be commended on escaping so he can make some more money.

Either way he will be scrutinized *very* carefully.

Yeah, I'm sure they take into account losses from such situations as this and "write it off". There's plenty more where that came from.

^^ I bet it wasn't even $1.25 million worth. I just write it off as bullshit as they have to make everybody believe the drug war is working, when clearly it isn't.

I bet the smuggler gets back to his guy, tells the story, shows the news thing, and then gets a high five since he got away. If I was a drug leader who had access to that much yayo, I'd keep whatever smuggler got away from the cops, even if he lost the goods.

That is hella funny. How did they get it in. Rofl. I mean shit people aren't stupid.
A great analogy of the drug war is computer hacking. I mean shit if the Mexico drugs actually stop I'm sure they can just come from another country instead.

no way.
maybe the pharms, but the illicit drugs are low-grade.
if you think mexico's drugs are good, then you should probably get a new dealer.
that's like a frat boy saying bud light is good beer.

The quality of the methamphetamine coming out of some Mexican labs is apparently extremely high. I'm still blown away by the discovery of a lab performing enantiomeric resolution that was published some years ago in a Microgram.

meth is about as easy to make as a ham sandwich, not very difficult to do chiral chrom either.
ok..so their meth is decent, but their black tar is shitty, coke is cut to all hell before it enters the US, and their weed
..well, if you've ever had it, you know it's just terrible.

i reiterate.. their pharms are good. mexican ket is as good as US ket, opiates too.
but don't support the cartels. they're operating like a strong-armed Wal-Mart; they don't give a crap about
selling quality product, they're far too greedy to give a shit.

Mexican farmers grow cannabis and poppies for H, both of which are shit I agree.

Mexico doesn't *quite* produce drugs though.  Maybe 30/70?  Most of their income is made from trafficking and smuggling.  People (immigrants, prostitutes, sexual slaves), money, guns and drugs need to go from one point to another and Mexican cartels are playing black-market UPS.  They'll get your wares from A to B and if someone wants it they'll get shot up and stuffed in a barrel of strong base and "chemically dis-incorporated" a la Heisenberg.

Additionally, Mexicans, more than ever, have a huge slice of the distribution and even the retail drug markets.  Blocks previously belonging to blacks and whites have been shot up by van-fulls of illegals who roll up with 20 dudes, kill everyone standing, and then come back the next day and set up shop.

Mexicans don't fuck around when it comes to commerce.  Drug production isn't their forte but there's money to be made there too so they throw down.
