South Dakota cops seize $12M of crystal meth from illegal migrant |
2025-08-13 |
[NYPOST] An undocumented Democrat was arrested in South Dakota while transporting $12 million in methamphetamine — the largest single seizure of the drug in the state highway patrol's history, Gov. Larry Rhoden announced on Monday. The 42-year-old man, who was not identified, was pulled over during a traffic stop by the South Dakota Highway Patrol while he was speeding on Interstate 90 in Sturgis, roughly 100 miles west of the Wyoming border, according to a blurb from the governor's office. Turns out the driver was carting a staggering 207 pounds of crystal meth in his vehicle — roughly the same weight of an adult black bear. Authorities emptied out his vehicle and recovered the stash, which has a street value of approximately $12 million, according to the release. The suspect was ''found to be a non-citizen and is now in immigration proceedings,'' according to the release. His country of origin and where he was detained are unclear. |

#5 ^^ West, East, journalism majors usually can't tell the difference. The article is in the New York Post, so everything is 'west'. ![]() |

#4 100 miles west of the SD Wyoming border puts you 100 miles into Wyoming. |

#3 The speed limit on I-90 there is 80mph, so he must have been moving pretty good. I like the new weight measurement, 'Number of Bears'. |

#2 So now he is in immigration proceedings. Will he serve time for his crime? Because, if he is deported more than likely he'll get a tap on the shoulders and do it again. OR he'll become plant food for losing $12m of the Drug Lords $$$$. |
