    How did that get arranged? Did the druggies like get the idea of smuggling backwards? You’re supposed to try and get across the border WITH the stuff, not leave them there thinking “ah it’ll be fine if we left them there, we needed to offload some weight”. Because now they’re probably going to come back, realize the bags are gone and be like “oh shit we dumb”.
