"We gotta get a new shipper Cheech"
I never thought of ordering a gun safe full of guns?
I guess you could say I did my bit back in the 70s to help law enforcement, I burned every bit of pot I could get my hands on.
Somebody got the wrong safe. Well, 2 somebodies got the wrong safe.
hmm, a drug cartel has a distribution warehouse in my area apparently. great.
Another illegal shipment makes it past the crack inspectors at the border.
After college, I worked in a pulp plant on the central gulf coast. The local law enforcement used to burn the square groupers they’d gotten in our “liquor furnaces.” Big multistory block-sized furnaces that burned the brown liquor added chemicals to eventually reclaim white liquor that we used cook pulp in.
These furnaces were up to 10 stories tall and huge. Made a massive noise. Every time the LEOs were there I could see all kinds of employees at various places on the nearly mile long series of conveyor belts that fed the damned thing. I often wonder exactly how many of the ‘groupers’ made it to the furnace.
“police hope to question a driver for Conway Inc., the truck company they said Champion hired to move the 25 to 30 gun safes to a warehouse in Ohio for local distribution.”
Hum, were the safes put on board the truck unlocked. Someone had to load the safe up somewhere, perhaps it was at the company shipping point. Who owns that company????
I need to go back an look inside by gun safe behind the door panels, who knows what I might find, but wait, my safe was made in the US, so why bother I guess.
An excuse now to check everyones gun Safes
“The shipping method has drawn the interest of the DEA because evidence suggests that this may not be the first time sealed gun safes have been used as smuggling portals, police said.
You just spent $1,700 to get marijuana delivered wherever you want, said Shelby County Chief Deputy Jim Frye. Thats pretty cheap.

Down here in Louisiana, we call that Lagniappe.
la·gniappe (lnyp, ln-yp) n. Chiefly Southern Louisiana & Mississippi 1. A small gift presented by a storeowner to a customer with the customer's purchase. 2. An extra or unexpected gift or benefit.
Hope he gets a refund on the extra 300 lbs. in shipping charges...
Sounds like someone was sampling the product immediately prior to shipping.
Somewhere in the drug smuggling trade, someone died a particularly painful death.
He just didn’t realize he ordered the marijuana dispensary package.
Someplace between Mexico and the warehouse in Northern Ohio, the drugs got mixed up and put in the wrong safe and got delivered to the wrong person, Lenhart said.
Eric "the Red" Holder and his top DEA officials cry real tears.
I ain't telling the gub'ment I was buying a gun safe and I certainly would never want it in their records that 300lbs of weed had been shipped to my house.
Of course I have no need of a gun safe being I have no guns.
So... ya know...
