      I thought no fucking way they found over 7000lb of cocaine on a little business jet but yeah, that Gulfstream could probably barely take off with that much on board. That’s one badass airframe.

        Cocaine production in latin America has never been higher, it’s dropped the price by huge amounts and now they are looking outside the USA to sell since the USA decided to kill their own economy.

        You don’t have to move fent. You can make it locally. The fent is usually mixed with other drugs, a little bit of cocaine could be laced with a whole lot of fent and then sold as pure cocaine to maximize profit.

            Truth be told I have no idea what’s actually popular now, but when fentanyl hit the scene, for years it was being mixed into other drugs as a cheap filler that would also make the drug more potent, faster acting and more addictive.
