- Ex-drug-trafficker Pieter Tritton rates eight trafficking scenes from movies and television for realism.
He discusses the accuracy of drug-trafficking methods depicted in "Narcos" S1E1 (2015), featuring Pedro Pascal; "American Made" (2017), starring Tom Cruise; and "Breaking Bad" S3E9 (2010), with Bryan Cranston, Aaron Paul, and Giancarlo Esposito. He also comments on drug-detection methods in "Blow" (2001), starring Johnny Depp and Penélope Cruz; "Miss Bala" (2019), starring Gina Rodriguez; and "Sons of Anarchy" S4E7 (2011), with Charlie Hunnam and Ron Perlman. Tritton analyzes the human impact of drug smuggling in "Maria Full of Grace" (2004) and "El Chapo" S1E1 (2017).
Tritton began his journey as a small-time drug dealer in the UK, but eventually his operation supplied many major dealers in the UK. He then began importing cocaine from Ecuador to Europe through a cartel connection. Tritton was arrested in Ecuador and sentenced to 12 years in one of the world's most violent and corrupt prisons.
Tritton now works as a public speaker on the dangers of drugs.

Ex-Cocaine Smuggler Breaks Down 8 Drug Smuggling Scenes in Movies and TV | How Real Is It? | Insider - บันเทิง
“This is 100% realistic, I’ve seen it happen with my own eyes. I’ll give it a 7/10”
Lmao
Not really fair - he appreciated some aspects of most scenes but gave the general impression they were all either leaving something out, had too many people, or overglamorised it. Hence why would he give a 9 or 10/10.
Posh Pete was on a few podcasts and told his story as a drug trafficker. It's so insane. Those South American jails are no freaking joke.
What happened on them?
@@slimeruthlessroyals1026 he give details on his time in the jails. The podcast is with Shaun Atwood and it's in multiple parts
@@phanatic215 :( I was hoping you’d just give examples lol
@@slimeruthlessroyals1026 Whenever there's a mass shooting, I tell myself everyone who got shot was probably as lazy as you and I don't feel bad about things at all :)
@@slimeruthlessroyals1026 he was beaten, hungry, and thirsty. It was dirty and dangerous.
Whoever selects the experts for this, and whoever does the filmography for this series, does fantastic work.
Most 'experts' make my skin crawl at how bad they are. This channel is outstanding.
Thanks.
@A Volpe Would you rather have a auto mechanic or a historian explain a car to you?
@A Volpe I dunno about you, but people don't consider the intricacies of drug trafficking and the average movie's believability in representing it in their free time. It's interesting to hear someone with a unique perspective talk about something you don't normally think about.
how bad they were
ok mr. drug trafficker
@@elcheapo572 I get what your saying but he sounds like he has a Johnson Rod in his mouth.
The sheer calm of a wise man. He knows what he’s talking about.
I don't think it's calmness, it's numbest of being hollowed out. After living the way he did and seeing the things he did it'll lead one to become "drained" so to speak
Calm, sure. wise, nah. that's the calmness of a guy who's been there done that, & a very tired one to boot.
Wise? He's a f***criminal, responsible for many deaths and ruining families.
'I was never involved with methamphetamine.'
... article posted at start says he was arrested with many kilos, along with heroin, coke, and weed.
@@catharperfect7036 Amphetamine is not methamphetamine. Both amines, but one is basically speed/adderall, and the other is ice. Can traffic one without having dealt the other.
As a Colombian living in the US the f... Stigma of narcos is insane. And every time I knew someone that brought up the conversation topic as something "cool" makes my blood boil. This guy's right there's nothing fancy or glamorous about the drug trafficking
It's also not just the people directly involved that are hurt. This can ruin the better part of a country. Having said that, the war on drugs makes every single thing worse.
PS: I edited this, as it previously said "it can ruin the entire country" because there's that shadow looming over everything, but, obviously, there are good people and good things everywhere, and no country deserves to have that stigma attached to it.
@@dr.victorvs We all know the "war on drugs" is really just the government removing their competitors in the drug trade and trying to win PR points at the same time.
I am from Sicily and I can Understand you. People think Mafia Is so Cool and all that bullsh*t...idiots.
Thanks Jorge
There definitely is if you don’t think so maybe it wasn’t for you
You can just see the awful things he’s seen and be a part of through his eyes
Absolutely. You can also tell where his heart is. A Brit through and through
He looks like a pro gamer
He looked the same younger, look at the photo at the beginning
@@ltipst2962 what's that got to do with anything
you can also just hear the amazing things he's snorted and be high on, through his nosy voice
You can tell even now as he breaks down these scenes and explains the details he’s dealing with PTSD from his own trafficking experience
Might wanna try learn what PTSD is before you start throwing it around lad
@MeChupaUnHuevon he does have ptsd. He's talked about it being due to his experiences in prison in south america
And I say "subjective" because some people can handle certain things better than others*
Yk what ptsd looks like, right?
He talks about it in the other video and you can hear his voice go before they cut and edit it out on some of the parts
By how he wrapped it up at the end made me realize something..sitting there recapping ridiculous reinactments of people doing what got you 10 years in prison would give you major ptsd vibes
According to some other people who claim to have watched his podcasts, he actually has been diagnosed with PTSD. So yeah, vibes check out.
why do y'all add "vibes" to everything. it's just PTSD.
@@CamJames I think it's because they didn't know he's been diagnosed with it, so they were saying he kinda gives off that vibe instead. Turns out he has the vibes because actually has it.
@@peggedyourdad9560 stop saying 'vibes' bro.
@@FlourescentPotato I said it 3 times across two comments lol.
I am an addict in recovery, thought I was always buying cocaine until I started having the drug sick symptoms. Finally I overdosed and they ran a toxin check. It was being cut with fentanyl. Been clean and sober for year now
That's really rough, stay safe mate
I call bullshit. Do you know how much fentanyl you have to take to overdose with a non-opioid familiar person? About 2mg, so a couple of grains of sugar. It takes quite a while to get sick from opiates, it doesn’t happen overnight. So you were doing this fentanyl/coke for weeks long enough to get hooked to be sick, then you suddenly overdosed? Bullshit. I was a heroin addict for 12 years and this sound like nonsense.
A year is amazing well done lad 🎉 ❤
@@bungle3912 I might be wrong, but I don't think he meant that he suddenly overdosed because of the fentanyl (I think that's what you thought?). I think he had been feeling the drug sick symptoms for a while, and when he eventually overdosed (not because of the fentanyl), they ran a toxin check and he realised the quality of the drugs he had actually been using. Again, I might be wrong, I'm no expert.
@@aldobonaso3481 Nah. No one overdoses on cocaine. You’d need to do tons of it and it would have to be super pure. You’d have a heart attack before you overdosed and even then that’s dubious. He means he overdosed because of the fentanyl in the coke. if you’re gonna overdose because of fentanyl in coke, it’ll happen way before you get the hooked sick symptoms.
“I don’t want to tell people exactly how they make cocaine…”
You disappoint me good sir.
@@TheDogGoesWoof69 how does that relate in any way to the original comment?
You have documentaries on YT where they used coca leaves and gas to do it
Don't remember the name tho.
@@gulgulgulgulgu Yeah, but they always leave out a step or two. It’s like KFC’s recipe: you can come close but never quite there.
@@S8kjdh65 What he is implying is that if one’s horse gets stuck in a bog, the goats that ate the pie have the best chance of surviving the fall from the top rung of a ladder. In other words, he’s probably on cocaine.
@@TheDogGoesWoof69 So you have never been to Britain then 😂 you have no idea how similar Britian and Amarica are...
When I saw this guy I was like holy moley he looks like he's seen some things. "I've been imprisoned in Ecuador for 10 years for trafficking cocaine." Understandable, have a great day.
I absolutely LOVE this series. If there were enough videos to go around I would never watch any other videos on TH-cam. They're just so fascinating and exciting and real.
Well that's a lie.
You've obviously never seen the "will it blend" channel
@@castlebilliards8712 I have, but there's only so many times you can watch a guy blend an iPhone
@@dengueberries 😂
He seems like such a calm guy, probably a good trait to deal with the great stress of smuggling
He has the calm of someone who has seen death, and knew it would come for him sooner rather than later, and grudgingly accepts the inevitable. That he was busted and got taken out of that circle of violence is a good thing. He will be haunted the rest of his days for what he did and witnessed though.
It's moreso the numbness one gets when living through PTSD
Its probably a trauma response
A necessary trait if you're going to walk through a border control area, knowing you'll be fucked if anyone knew what your intentions are
He's not calm, he's just void of any feeling.
I really love listening to Pete talk, he's so interesting and has certainly had some pretty insane experiences
Have you read his book? It was intense!
@@FirstLast-vy6rn I will get it!
As someone who used to be a dealer and has been arrested twice for trafficking I can tell you there’s NOTHING glamorous about it! You either end up dead or in prison if you stay it that lifestyle!
10 years ago I was a street dealer and it was great actually. I got arrested once but paid the bail and got back at it the next day lol.
"My personal experiences were portrayed really well in Narcos"
"Oh, you were a DEA agent"
"DEA agent?"
Man, we are getting closer and closer to actually doing the "Ex-Serial Murderer Breaks Down 10 Murder Scenes in Movies and TV" meme with these expert reviews eh?
Man so i want to giggle at the silliness of this comment... And yet, i know i probably shouldn't.
Yes EVERYTHING needs to be "broken down" and made into a youtube video series nowadays. EVERYTHING. NOTHING can happen without videos anymore
@@jayaskme2942 Silliness? It's true. Theres already this Bully the Sam contract killer guy making videos about mafia movies so think again. We have actual MURDERER "youtubers" making youtube videos.
Aren't you bored of commenting this, like fr? I see this exact same comment under every single video. We get it, we see more and more criminals on this channel.....so?
@@tatsumisouma dude this is the first time i've commented on a video on anything in like 6 months
I think I’m more impressed that he survived 10 years in South American prison
He was protected obviously, look at him lol
@@watchinyoutube8919 Prob because he kept his mouth shut and didn't snitch, so they took care of him
I recently learned that my mom used to date a guy who flew Cessnas full of cocaine for Carlos Lehder back in the 80s. She obviously didn't want to tell me too much about it, so videos like this are great because they help me understand some of what she lived through and what it would've been like for her. Thanks for sharing your story, Pete
Hope you get to meet your father someday buddy 😂😂
@@BigBossIsBack my brother's father*
My father was a tweaker and a useless absentee father from Washington state
@@sgtsongbird Your mom really knows how to pick em huh?
@rakuencallisto my step dad is the best man in the whole world, so yes she does! Also for reference the man I was talking about in my original comment was a predator, they got together when he was in his 30s and she was 16. I don't think there was a lot of choosing on her part, from my understanding he groomed her into a relationship :/
@@sgtsongbird I really didn't mean to get that real man. I'm sorry for being a jerk, it was a bad joke. I hope you are well and forgive me.
I was a police spokesperson for a while and I "covered" some drug trafficking operations between South(Central) America and Europe. As for the female smuggler: sending a petite woman for the first time, the cartel would do a mock test to check how the woman behaves with authorities, with perhaps ONE portion (condom) - and sometimes it could even be powdered sugar (!!). And two, some drug manufacturers would use Europeans, in other words the smuggler would be returning home with the drugs, which is more innocent than a South American solo traveler coming with them. I know of two Czech women (previously sentenced) who had "Venezuelan boyfriends there" and they would traffic drugs to Europe on their return journeys (of course, you are coming home), instead of Colombian women traveling alone to Europe for some reason, even "visiting sister".
What’s a police spokesperson? Are you a scummy pig that worked with the feds against drugs?
your such a liar xD. the things you do for attention....its just sad
@@_KSM *You’re
*It’s :))
Not here to defend or convince people. Just offering something to the debate.
A spokesperson is an officer/employee of the press department who responds to media inquiries. He or she makes statements for the press and appears on the news on behalf of their law enforcement organisation.
"spokesperson"... No department has any such title.
Very realistic: 7/10! What is needed to rate something 10/10?! Does he have to recognize the peolpe? 🤣
"This movie is very realistic. 6/10!"
Great guy though, he's been very interesting in other episodes as well.
I think he said "fairly" there
Thank you so much for getting some honesty out there !!!
I love this series. More, please! He's very interesting to watch. Also you could have used the scene on Dead Like Me where Mason brings smuggles some coke and it bursts whilst it's in his bum.
Ouch
"This is absolutely realistic without any doubt. I'd give it a 3/10."
i feel like the only 10/10 would be an actual video of a typical drug trafficking operation
You can tell Pete is the real deal, because even when he’s smiling and laughing you can tell he’s uneasy. Bet he can barely take a deep breath
00:01 Movie portrayals of drug smuggling are often unrealistic.
02:01 Drug smuggling techniques and processes in South America.
03:59 Insight into the drug smuggling process in South America
05:47 Drug smugglers use various tactics to avoid detection and deliver drugs
07:55 Drug smuggling portrayed as glamorous but actually risky and dangerous
10:01 Real-life drug smuggling involves intricate planning and trust
11:59 Testing purity of cocaine is realistically depicted
14:16 Drug smuggling methods involving vehicles
I loved his "for the feds to get a bust this big, something must have gone wrong" pause..... "oh for the Cartel that is"
How calmly he says he witnessed many people getting killed in a gruesome ways is very.... chilling...
He looks like he’s seen and done some insane things. I’m glad he’s doing positive things nowadays!!
When I lived in the Florida Keys there were always drugs floating in the ocean or washing up on the shore. Remember to do your part and Save the Bales!
lmao there is even restaurants themed around that being such a common occurrence, I went to one seafood place called the "Square Grouper". While it would easily have the potential to ruin your life in more ways than one, I wouldn't mind finding $40k just floating in the ocean if it didnt get you killed immediately after lol
@@von... you aren't going to get smoked unless you're stupid and tell people "hey I found this coke on the beach"
Just tell people you got it in Cali or Texas or literally anywhere other than washed up on the beach.
Not sure if it was Florida but just a couple of weeks ago they found a seaturtle tangled in a net that held 50 million bucks worth of cocaine.
@@user-lv7ph7hs7l That turtle had met some bad people to become a smuggler. Great idea though. I wonder whether the manatees are in on this?
@@jannekirjasniemi6128 Yeah that turtle is dead though. It was supposed to bring a load from narcosub to shore but it failed. The manatees stay out of it, they are pretty chill and mostly deal in weed and opium. It's dolphins you gotta worry about.
Great to see posh Pete react to these movie scenes. Pls do a part 2, the mans just got too much knowledge on this subjects.
I very much appreciate his speech in the end.
Love this series, keep it up!
Great work 🥳 Thank you 💜
Really great work in any situation; superb Observation🧐 Regards👍👍
Very interesting! I'd definitely watch more.
Damn thanks for this kinds of guides
Love the episode, Pete is outstanding. Respect to him.
Excellent production. Great series. It should be on streaming services.
What are you watching it on?
The only problem with "Los Pollos" UV star stamp scene would be that it wouldn't be stamped on the lids but the actual bucket. The lids can be switched if someone had I'll intentions.
The lids they're putting on those buckets aren't normal bucket lids. They can only be easily removed if you remove the plastic tear strip on the bottom of the bucket lid. It may be possible to remove the lids without removing the tear strip if you heat the lid in boiling water to make it more pliable, but you would ruin the fry batter and it would be obvious that the bucket had be tampered with.
Actually a pretty ingenious way of transporting drugs.
Edit: also if they can get the bucket open to swap the lid, they can just as easily swap the bucket itself too. If you get one of those lids off without messing up the tear strip then it's trivial to put it back on a bucket because that's the way they are made to be used anyways.
Glad you guys brought back posh Pete again as his stories are amazing to hear from his voice & perspective
Can you guys do a part 2? I love this man
Next video: Ex-Nuclear-Bomber breaks down TV myths on how to nuke a city.
we did it a bit differently in hiroshima, 6/10
There are actual murderers who do these videos, this Sammy Bull guy is an actual assassin for the mob, but he's not serving life, nope. He's a video blogger =D
I LOVE these!!! Keep them coming!!!
In Antwerp harbour there was malware placed in the computer at the terminal. They could track and direct containers with coke to certain places to be loaded on trucks driven by the traffickers. High level stuff. One container was accidentally picked up by a normal driver. They shot with Ak47's to "convince" the driver to get off the truck. Don't know how long they did this, but being able to track and direct containers is highly lucrative
This is a pretty common way of smuggling basically anything. Either bribe someone who is handling the containers, or hack into the system and manipulate it. It was even included in one of the seasons of The Wire.
Season two of the wire
Ayo great that you brought him back to the series
ive watched posh Pete on a few videos now and every time hes great. so knowledgeable and willing to share information on the topic
Hey Posh Pete (Piet?)! I remember your story from Locked Up Abroad. Really great episode. Congratulations on all the great lessons your teaching and coming out of Ecuador on a positive note. Here's to all the best in the future!
Also I wish I could get a cool nickname like that. I'd join into drug trafficking just until someone's like "Lookie here it's Jumpin Jimminy Joshua...." Then my life would be complete. As I sit in a Columbia prison sewing t shirts with that name on it....
I remember a punk society I used to frequent, that you're not the one to pick your own nickname.
If you like it, it's not for you. If you hate it, you're stuck with it ! 😆
Do yourself a favor. Please don't get into drugs.
Best wishes
"Pellerud"

hey, ive seen this guy on "locked up abroad"
one of the best episodes too!
This guy seems like he is actually real. I've seen some other guys on here on YT that I feel like they just make up half of what they say and exaggerate everything where this seems legit and reliable
Suggestion: Endocrinologist breaks down steroid scenes in movies and TV
Top suggestion.

I remember this specific drug trafficking movie that I stumbled across were this woman was forced to keep drugs in her body, pass the security system and vomit it out. Risky play but it’s problaby the most simple way to traffic drugs
👆👆look up that handle, he ships swiftly, and he got shrooms, Dmt, lsd, mmda, psilocybin, adderall, morphine, edibles, fentanyl, cubensis, meth, gummies, SSRI, chocolate bars, he's got a lot.. 🍄 💊🍄🍫💯🔌
This video just makes me remember a comment under another of these videos where someone said 'What will they bring next? Serial killer judges killing scenes?' 😅 This is amazing and so interesting!
It’s not really giving authorities 6, it’s taking a loss of 6 and having authorities feel like they found the Contraband and sneaking in 600 where the authorities aren’t looking due to them celebrating the seizure of the six
This man is traumatized, I would almost guarantee he struggles with PTSD.
I think its important to recognize how quickly he states during the breaking bad clip: "How realistic that is I don't know cause I wasn't involved."
Thats a good way to discern that when he does say something, he has seen it.
Drugs are bad mmkay.
Also quick to admit “I don’t know,” which is a beautiful quality many don’t possess. He’s not here to project himself as a secretive, hardened badass backstory guy but merely share his insight as someone who *has* seen a thing or three.
13:02 the whole idea with breaking bad was that over decades Gus fring, an extremely meticulous person, was able to, in relative safety from scrutiny, build up an extensive distribution network and production scale that would have dominated the entire area away from the cartel. that hitch in the plan that "always happens" he refers to was walter white
Stilm too large of an operation. Wouldn't need other cartels' drugs if there was a coca cola version of cocaine on the market.
This was an exceptionally good one.
Narcos.. what a ride that show was. Not so much the third season though
I've got your book, Pieter. I'm glad you're staying on the straight and narrow now, brother.
Excellent as always. Looking forward to expert reactor reacts to reactors.
Crime doesn’t pay, but Insider does. And I’m here for it.
Thank you for sharing.
I do mean it in way that you found your peace with it. And have a lot of experience. So it means something when you rate it.
I remember hearing some news station talk about how some people almost successfully smuggled a liquid drug somewhere by hiding the contents inside coconuts. Not sure how real it is, but entertaining AF either way.
in equador they hid the coke in bananas, like took out all the insides n stuffed them w coke lol so i don’t doubt the coconuts
I find Pete so fascinating, almost makes it feel like anyone at the wrong place at the reich time could go down his path

13:05 Funny how he actually describes what actually happened in the show when the truck got hijacked 😂😂
Yeah, I really don't think he gave Breaking Bad much of a chance. Also, the meth was being produced in the US and distributed inside the country by a very renowned and beloved fast food chain, it's not the same level of suspicion that people working in the jungles of Columbia would face.
Now THIS is a certified banger.
For anyone who's interested in other high level British drug importers with insane stories, listen to the James English podcast with people like Stephen Mee, Paul Doyle and Andrew Pritchard. They were bringing in literal tonnes!
There is a scene in Maria Full of Grace, where the...uh...thing that he brings up becomes an issue.
That was a great, scrappy race. Though impressive displays of athletic prowess, many of these big Spring one-day races have been won by such large margins that they haven't been that exciting. Congratulations, Piddock!
Every time he chuckled its like "Your'e just kid".
These insider episodes are getting more and more crazy, “ex terrorist breaks down terrorism scenes in movies”
Even if there was a clip of him trafficking he would still only give it an 8/10.
Ever since I heard about Posh Pete, I was hoping he would do an episode of Insider.
well I guess I’m googling Posh Pete now. Fantastic series. I heard he was on a podcast… Will check that out too
My friend’s uncle once worked at a small hotel before. The continental breakfast was pretty bad
cool story bro
Expecting a follow up with "How It's Made Cocaine edition" Featuring Posh Pete.
15:46 his voice just sounds like all the pain he has experience
“This mans an accountant” my first thought
I learned from these videos: Hollywood is good at drugs and tanks, but Hollywood sucks at ships, swords, spears, and fight scenes in general.

Dam if I saw him on the streets I would have no idea he did anything like that.Don’t judge a book by its cover
El Chapo is actually in ADX Florence, which is the most secure prison in the entire U.S. It's literally worse than death, you're confined to your cell for 23 hours a day, the walls are soundproof so you can't talk to other people, your cell is moved frequently and when you do it you're hooded and wearing earmuffs so you can't tell where in the facility you are.
0:19 Rollerskates worth 25,000$? Didn't expect that^^
Nice to see Pete again. Such a sweet guy.
This guy cracks me up. He described the movie "American made" as like 100% yet scored it a 7/10. Edit: I finished the whole video and it cracked me up even more! He described so many movies as legitimate yet only ever scores them a 7 or 8 no matter what lol.
i think secretly pete knows he could do it better
Well this is an edited version of what they actually filmed. Probably showed him more scenes that were not as realistic as he sees it
So if a certain scene is legit it's gotta be 10 outa 10 that's dumb nothing is ever perfection
I think it's because - as he says - glamorized in both movies and TV, so it probably looks kind of fake to him.
I feel like they probably show them more of the clips than they can get away with on TH-cam
The banana and cocaine story happened in Porto, Portugal, at the Lidl supermarket I used to go regularly eheh
Ayooo this channel is getting wild mate...
One day there will be a video
"Ex scene-break-down-er breaks down break-down scenes"
Ex scene breakdown producer breaks down famous breakdown scenes.
Did 10 years in prison for running a scene-breakdown chop shop
Getting closer to the one we're all waiting for: "serial killer evaluates murder scenes".
“They’ll put you in a room” Ryan George Cinematic Universe confirmed!
The last thirty seconds goes the hardest in the entire video.... The things he's seen...
Despite being in a foreign prison would be absolutely terrible.. sounds like you hear great stories in there.
That's actually the real Posh Pete. Dude seems likeable enough.
I worked with this guy on a tv show and had no idea that this was his previous career haha
"Usually don't send this large amounts"...way larger shipments happen all the time. The biggest single shipment seized here in Antwerp was 11.5 ton in 2020 and in 2022 they seized 110 ton in total...which is fraction of what actually gets through the port. 60kg is peanuts for the big guys
Not checking flight attendants? I assume that’s true in some countries.
When I lived in Saudi Arabia, they definitely checked the flight crew. We got in line behind one flight attendant figuring she would get through customs quickly. She had a box of Lindt Symphony wrapped chocolates. Customs opened up every single one and poked inside them to make sure they didn’t have any alcohol inside of them.
The film that was taken from was set in the 70s.
No surprise there: Saudi Arabia is the country of Zero Fun (unless you count the application of religious dogma as fun).
@@michaelnotarealsurname1308 yeah it's set in the really early 70's I believe so completely real because it's a real story based on George yung or jung
My mom's a flight attendant in the US and they don't check her bags at all when she goes through TSA. Although, some flight crew can be subjected to random searches every once in a while.
In the 70s and 60s. You didn't even need to show your passport to board
To my American ear, all British folks sound sophisticated and "posh", even when talking about drug trafficking 🤔
😅, unless they sound like they’ve done way to much drugs all their life.
He is posh so he even sounds posh to me a British person
Lol
@@epicfailhomey7546 like Ozzy? Lol
He definitely has a fairly posh accent.
He was in one of the episodes of Locked Up Abroad on NatGeo I think. IIRC it was the episode with his friend.
Holy shit….I just thought about this when he mentioned them locking ppl up till they poop the drugs out but….if a mule had an accident or like they needed to use the bathroom on the flight or something, I think they have to “resecure” the drugs 😭😭😭😭😭 I mean it’s that or get caught by the cops right? 😢
