20 Weirdest Places Drugs Have Been Smuggled

Drug dealers generally aren’t the smartest people in the world. They may be able to pocket a lot of a money doing something illegally, but it won’t last forever. They often do the undoing themselves by committing a stupid act when transporting the goods. You have to admire some of the creative ways these people think of smuggling drugs to other countries in this list, from stuffing them in children’s toys to putting them in breast implants. Some of them, though, are not so commendable.

Dogs

Two drug dealers surgically inserted an undisclosed amount of cocaine into their Labrador. The drugs were sent from Colombia to Britain, but were caught at the Stansted Airport.

Maybe they didn’t think it’d be conspicuous if marijuana grew around normal plants, but police eventually noticed the plant when it grew three feet tall.

Children’s Toy

An Oregon mom unexpectedly purchased an Easter gift for her baby that contained three bags of marijuana. It was hidden in a “Smart Shots Sports Center” located in the clearance center at Wal-mart.

Belly Fat

A woman from Michigan tried to sneak in some dope into jail after being sentenced. She was caught because she somehow forgot that officers watch you strip before putting on jail attire.

Custard Packets

Border Control picked up a suitcase at a New York airport that was originally from Guyana. The suitcase was filled with milk powder and custard powder packets that also were mixed with cocaine.

Even the most unsuspecting places can be dealing drugs. A 64-year-old man in a California retirement home ran a meth lab in his room. Officers were able to recover nearly $2,000 worth of crystal meth.
