ICE makes biggest cocaine bust in 25 years: $77M seized at New Jersey port
[Washington Examiner] Federal law enforcement officers assigned to the Port of New York and New Jersey in Newark, N.J., made the largest discovery of cocaine in nearly 25 years last month when they found $77 million worth of cocaine inside a shipment container that had just arrived from overseas.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Monday that approximately 3,200 pounds of cocaine was found in the large container on Feb. 28.

"This is a significant seizure, in fact it is the largest cocaine seizure at the Port of New York/Newark since May 1994," Troy Miller, director for Customs and Border Protection's New York Field Operations, said in a statement.

#2 For as long as I can remember there have been stories like this about "the biggest drug bust ever" and yet there is no shortage of product on the street. When there are no more stories about people dying from drug overdose and gang bangers are no longer shooting each other then it might be safe to speculate that the flow has been disrupted.

#3 Abu, all of this is just like the stories about Saudi oil production. They are just trying to juice the market, justify a price increase NOT lose customers.
