$165 million if all of it were sold by the gram at top dollar.



That's how they report drug seizures. Meth, Heroin, Coke all of em. They report the max revenue POSSIBLE.

Nevermind the hundreds of pounds "given away" by rich dudes at parties, strip clubs, etc who bought bricks.

who arrested four suspected drug smugglers,


Suspected? They were found with 6 TONS of cocaine on a submarine and they are SUSPECTED drug smugglers? Like, they may not be drug smugglers? Just a couple of guys that got on the wrong submarine?

Dammit, Krieger! Why’d you use the real coke as ballast for the sub test?

It wasn’t smuggling, it was a Peruvian party barge.

Didn't this just happen a month or two ago as well? I thought I remembered seeing news footage of them boarding the sub.

I bet in the next few decades they will be able to use subs with automacy much like drones and just have them go to their waypoints for delivery and back. I have heard of drones already flying over prison yards and dropping drugs and whatnot to a prisoner, so surely they will get to subs with automacy

It would seem like with all the technology we have, there shouldn't be any accidental stumblings on ocean wreckage.

Sonor technology isn't advanced enough to put it on a satellite?

I imagine that for one submarine stuffed with coke like this that are found and intercepted, there are countless, untold numbers that go undiscovered
