Breaking911: MIAMI — More than 5 tons of cocaine seized in international waters off the Eastern Pacific Ocean from early June to mid-July was offloaded by the crew of the Coast Guard Cutter Hamilton Wednesday in Port Everglades.
The drugs were seized during the interdiction of five suspected smuggling vessels and the recovery of two floating bale fields found off the coasts of Mexico, Central and South America by the Coast Guard cutters Hamilton (WMSL-753), Alert (WMEC-630), and Venturous (WMEC-625).
Hamilton was responsible for four cases, seizing an estimated 2,962 kilograms of cocaine.
The cutter Alert was responsible for one case, seizing an estimated 2,253 kilograms of cocaine.
The cutter Venturous was responsible for one case, seizing an estimated 616 kilograms of cocaine and 50 pounds of marijuana. more here
That’s great! Now they need to find/arrest the people who were shipping it. That’s a lot of taxpayer money going to keep picking up drugs and no perps.
How much got through? Wow, we must have a drug problem. Is that the same cocaine that they are lacing in with street marijuana to hook kids?

I’ll muster a sniffle and a couple bucks for their “widows and orphans” fund. Right after I recover from my emotional breakdown contributing to BLM’s “widows and orphans” fund.
A President Obozo would have made a special trip to Florida to congratulate the crew, and personally “inspect” the seized drugs.
Whatever poor bastard dumped that load is probably already dead or will be as soon as the cartels catch him.
So….
If no one was arrested…..and the drugs weren’t needed for a prosecution….
WTF….did they transport the drugs to the mainland…???
Scuttle that crap and be on the way to the next load…..unless the CIA gave you different orders.
Maybe Miami needs to outlaw straws like Santa Barbara has.
And rolled-up Benjamins, too I guess.
