Epic Fail! An Interesting Way to Try to Hide Meth
You might say that miniature busts led to a major bust. We also want to emphasize this did not happen at a Disney theme park.
AP tells us that the Drug Enforcement Administration near Atlanta confiscated meth hidden inside ceramic Disney figurines. Authorities say the haul is worth roughly two million dollars!
Over 500 figurine characters like WInnie the Pooh, Donald Duck and Pluto were holding the goods that were destined for Atlanta, intended to go to ports unknown from there. The meth originated in Mexico. As an added diversion, authorities intercepted a load of legitimate ceramic they believe were intended to be a decoy.
Props to the DEA for sticking their hand in Pooh's honey jar. It's always great to hear stories like this where the good guys win!
