It's quite deliberate, I'm working on the assumption that a sacrificial lamb is offered up for face saving every now and again. For all we know most of these drugs could be as fake as the chance this guy made it to his destination - he was obviously completely and utterly setup from the beginning. Pure entrapment. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And let the cops down in Bangkok keep the 88 million baht of produce? Why would you doubt that? Even if 10 tonnes get napped and only 1 ton gets through, they (the people behind this) still make huge profits. It's that cheap to produce.. https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/meth-syndicate/ "The money the syndicate is making “means that if they lose ten tonnes and one goes through, they still make a big profit,” said the Chinese counter-narcotics official. “They can afford failure. It doesn’t matter.”" 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auntie gets kid, she gets bored and fobs off to Granny, who gets bored and fobs off to aunty #2 and so on...... Normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
