Drop the rod and step away witcher hands up!
Tuesday on charges of trying to smuggle more than 17 pounds of methamphetamine through a Border Patrol checkpoint.

Jose Rafael Arreguin-Maguellal, 22, admitted he was carrying the meth and said he was going to get paid $800 for driving it to Los Angeles, a Drug Enforcement Administration agent said in an affidavit accompanying the charges.

Border Patrol agents identified his car as he drove up to the checkpoint on Highway 86 south of the Salton Sea in southern Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,. Mr. Arreguin told the agents he was covered by DACA, or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, then began stumbling over his words as they asked him where he was coming from.

At the same time, a drug-sniffing dog alerted on the car, a 2013 Kia Optima, the affidavit says.

After getting permission to search the car, agents found 14 packages wrapped in clear plastic inside a box in the trunk, totaling more than 17 pounds. The agents said the load tested positive as meth, and had a street value of nearly $35,000.

#2  more than 17 pounds. The agents said the load tested positive as meth, and had a street value of nearly $35,000.

That seems way off. Like by a factor of 10-15 street value. I can believe $35K/kilo wholesale. But then, I could be getting old and the bottom dropped out of the market (not).

he's only getting paid $800 for it?


Illegals also depressing the job market for drug mules.
