Early Halloween Idea #472: Coke Shark
Tis the season for migration – the humpbacks head south, the Arizonans head West, and of course, the coke sharks swim northward to Mexico.
Authorities intercepted a school of such Arm & Hammerheads [groan] this week in the Mexican port of Progreso, Mexico’s Navy Secretariat reported. Almost 2,000 pounds of Columbian yayo was found in the frozen guts of hundreds of sharks packed into a shipping container from the vessel Dover Strait. The school of coke sharks was en route to the USA via Costa Rica when port authorities scanned their container with a GT-200 molecular detector and reeled in the cache.
No matter, some 650 tons of cocaine will make it into America this year by the usual routes: heroin-laden humpbacks and meth mules from Phoenix.
