I never liked cocaine (thank God), but I always find it amusing in a sick way that we treat cocaine smugglers like they're demons as we pour another Martini and check our stock prices of Seagrams...

Hypocrites!

@SuperTruth77 wow....that's nuts!!!! Let me get this straight....you sat next to a dead body for the rest of the flight?

10yrs ago I was on a long-haul flight from Nigeria when in the night the young woman next to me started having terrible seizures. I called the attendants, who took her away & 10mins later told me she had died. She was a drugs ‘mule’, & one of the packages had split open inside her.

What happened next was disturbing. They paid me $800 to keep quiet while her body was replaced beside me- officially, she ‘died in her sleep’. It would have been too much legal/admin hassle for the airline otherwise.

if you like this clip, you should watch the whole documentary... it is bloody good. There are even some more shocking revelations in this doco.

One side of his face looks like it has been caved in. His left eye is slightly closed up. It looks like someone has punched him in that side of the face.
