gonna start cross posting...
...to my blog and this LJ!
starting w/this
A customs officer stashed a 142g (5oz.) bag of marijuana in a passengers bag to test airport security at Narita airport in Tokyo. Unfortunate for the officer, dogs failed to pick up the scent, the agent forgot which bag he had put the cannabis in, and one lucky son of a bitch was rewarded with a marijuana jackpot for being a customs test subject.
BBC article link.
Apparently the officer went against regulations when he placed the loot in a regular passenger's bag, and not a test bag like they normally use. Which is fine I guess, but what if the test subject is on a connecting flight and has to clear customs in another country? I hope the guy who unknowingly got away with the stash wasn't connecting to Singapore or somewhere with an instant drug-possession death penalty.
But still--AWESOME.
