It is soooo stupid to be a mule.....and all that for 2-3 K $ !
Did the Women know, that she had the drugs with her ? At the end it's not important. She will stay many years in the PP inn.....with her 2 friends !

I got pulled out of the line at x-ray in KLIA2 and passport details taken in the last month - not sure what that was about, no other interference. Mrs Stroppy wasn't with me, so perhaps I look more sinister without her.phuketrichard wrote: ↑Tue Sep 05, 2017 7:43 pm i'd say 99% of busts are because of tip offs,
how many here have ever had a bag searched flying into Cambodia or Bangkok?
i never have in 30 years

Crazy isn't it? The odds against a mule are surely the worst they have ever been. As you say, their techniques haven't really changed. There are only so many variations of strapping, stuffing, swallowing and secreting a mule can employ so if they get the tug they aren't walking away without the stash being found.Bitte_Kein_Lexus wrote: ↑Wed Sep 06, 2017 7:10 am What I wonder is why anyone would agree to do this with a Nigerian. Travelling with one would probably decrease your odds of success by 80%. It's like a major red flag. As mentioned, they probably record conversations by known drug dealers and nab people as they go. Or maybe detect stuff in the bags and tip-off the landing airports. Such a risky game, I don't know why anyone would want to play it. It's not the 70s anymore, yet the hiding techniques they use are pretty much the same, while monitoring/scanning technology has increased tenfold.
Add in the enhanced security scanning that bags are subject to and it amounts to a lousy gamble for little return.
That's what being fat, ugly and dumb enough to agree to being a drug mule then getting arrested in a third world airport will do for you. Add in the fact that she probably has enough smarts to realise just how much shit she is in now, yeah, looking depressed is appropriate.

In her favor, they don't actually have a death penalty here so she'll probably just get 30 years or so. She's got enough bulk on her to avoid starvation for a couple of years too. I'd make a wild guess that she was enamored by this Nigerian gangster and just went along, innocently or not, with some scheme. The Thai woman looks a lot more hard-core, but who knows?
Silence, exile, and cunning.

That may certainly happen quickly with TB thriving in Asian prisons.

Any of you US military/former military folks notice the AAFES plastic shopping bag on the evidence table? I wonder what the US military connection is? The American lady is too big to have been in the military recently...
