This just doesn't set well with me. She LEGALLY purchased the ammo. It legally was in her posession. Taking her own leagl personal property out of the country should not be a crime. And with whom did she conspire? One person cannot conspire.........

Out of the country? That's nothing. Try taking your legally-owned personal property into New York City or Chicago. You'd be charged just the same.

Cool. I own a blueprint of the old Fat Man nuclear bomb that we dropped on Nagasaki (hangs on the wall in my shop). I suppose you'll have no complaints if I take it with me on my vacation to Central America next summer.

The US has the right to regulate the exportation of any information or material that can be used against us either criminally or militarily. This means that my blueprint shouldn't be taken outside of the country, and neither should these 13,000 rounds of ammunition. Since most firearms in Mexico are owned either by drug smugglers (MS13) or communist rebels (Chiapas), the US has a very real interest in stopping the illicit exportation of ammunition to that country.
