We already know it goes into the hands of our kids.
"Calexico, Calif. — U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers working at the Calexico downtown port of entry arrested a 20-year-old male U.S. citizen after discovering $330,000 worth of methamphetamine hidden in the vehicle he was driving.
The incident occurred this morning, Thursday, March 29, at about 4:00 a.m. when a CBP officer conducting inspections of vehicles and travelers referred the blue 2005 Nissan Sentra for further examination.
During the inspection, a canine team screened the vehicle and the detector dog alerted to the dashboard area. An intensive search of the area led officers to the discovery of 30 wrapped packages of methamphetamine concealed within the vehicle’s dashboard. The weight of the narcotic is 30 pounds.
The driver, a resident of Holtville, California, was turned over to the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents for further investigation. The violator was later transported to the Imperial County Jail where he currently awaits arraignment.
CBP seized both the vehicle and narcotic.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection is the unified border agency within the Department of Homeland Security charged with the management, control and protection of our nation's borders at and between the official ports of entry. CBP is charged with keeping terrorists and terrorist weapons out of the country while enforcing hundreds of U.S. laws."

I think there are probably more deputies than anyone realizes who really want a change in Aspen's S.O. I wasn't too keen on the leak in the press if there is an investigation going on. That doesn't help anybody except give a scoop to the Daily. We all know it would be a different dept. if Leonard had been elected. Make Joey a one-termer.
Dunno if I got them all but added up just what I could find of your postings on CBP catches, nanny.
$24 million aprx. Everything from meth to pot. Unbelievable especially when you look around us and see how much dope is getting busted. That means a lot more than what they're catching at the border is actually getting across. We already know from court records that the Aspen stuff came out of some of the violent cartel connects. Asking the question of Peacock and how zealous is he for transparency is a da** good one.
You're welcome, 'Garcia'.
Does anyone remember that Dennis Quaid movie where the northern hemisphere was covered in ice and his family was in New York? They showed a scene where thousands of Americans were trying to flee for safe sanctuary across the border into Mexico....and the Mexican government shut down the border and wouldn't let anyone cross.....
I've always wondered why we can't fine Mexico for every oz. of any drugs we seize or can identify as coming from their country. Don't give it back to them, it must get destroyed or something somewhere. But penalize them and fine them for not stopping it on their side.
With any luck, we just might also get a closed border out of the deal when they balk at paying up.
Classic. Saw it out at Movieland and for a minute the place was dead silent. Then pretty wild with remarks and laughing. It sort of felt stunned like and I'm a legalized mexican.
They aren't 30 yrs too late getting into Aspen. What will be too late is if they don't go deep enough. The problems brought on back then sparked some good cops instincts and they weren't wrong. It's not a political corruption but political corruption became and is a symptom. From Websters on corruption is decay, decomposition, impairment. Related is breakdown, festering, putrefaction, putrescence, rot and spoilage. Opposites are morality and virtue. What the folks are whispering everywhere and have for a lot more years than something like "SandboxNanny" has been around is the legal liability this decay of trust in our leaders has forced us to live in. Legal terms from Websters like modus operandi, malfeasance, complicity, alienable, actionable.
My parents had one word for it and that's where I'll run with on the Feds finally maybe digging in. Wrong.
If what Joe DiSalvo says of himself is true he should step down and prove that. I said that when Schrant set up the old-timers bust the way he did and went and got Lou. DiSalvo has the young crowd of kids like Puder, Simmons. The Russian guy who's still sitting in jail on appeal is one that really is getting off on a technicality because we have a DA with long track records of those problems that should back out of his race and step down if he was as virtuous as he claims. That Russian still had a bunch of dope in his possession, weapons and more of the sanctuary illegals problem we've got everywhere. That's Joe DiSalvo's watch not the sheriff of 30 yrs. ago or even Braudis. Worse, those kind of elected authorities got into office by either beating the social c*** out of an opponent or riding the coat tails of their predecessor. Assisted on the way by both Democrat and Republican corruption (if we are to believe all the definitions in the dictionary).
Here's the thing. There are hundreds of common citizens for every handful of defined by who they hang with and their modus operandi power brokers who do not want corruption of any kind in our lives. We're forced to deal with Aspen and its main feeders of development and tourism every day if we want to live here. Most of us feel like we need a shower as we start the commute home from some big builds. They will find very, very few workers (legal ones anyway) who rub elbows socially with the people they work for. That's not a case of us vs them. It's a case of not wanting to be a part of any of it and of protecting our own. But then we get stuck with the Max Puders, the Russian guy, Thomas Simmons, the Wayne Reid gang and find out we've got reason to be nauseous because of the Monty Chitty's of the whole thing.
No, would be the answer on whether or not Jon Peacock and Joe DiSalvo know where this dope that feeds into the slope comes from. More importantly they don't seem to care.
