They know going in that they're going to lose a certain percentage of loads.

The big question is whether this bust will have any effect on the street. If not, it speaks to how much product they're bringing in.

Well that makes 2 subs in what...3 months? Remember the video of the dude pounding on the hatch while it was hauling ass? And there was that YUUGE haul that was captured in Jersey? Or was it New York?

That’s some pretty big loads the last few months.

Nice touch, V-Tail! Big Grin

Funny thing is the dollar amount is not exaggerated street price, like the FEDS usually do. Figuring a 6,000 kilo guestimate it comes out to $27,500 a kilo...….to get to $165 million.

I have personally sat off Columbia and seen multiple targets leave port and head north to the US.

We were only one ship and could only capture one ship at a time.

This loss does nothing to the cartels. Nothing. Until Americans quit using cocaine, it will continue. Without fail.

Preferably with the occupants on board. Or at least get some worthwhile information from them to sink the bigger fish.

Because we charge the traffickers with smuggling. Gotta have proof of their deeds for the courts.

Don’t mistake me, I’m in the sink them camp also, I was just explaining why we gather the drugs and capture the crew.
