Dinnerware Made of Cocaine Seized - Neatorama

Spanish police seized a 42-piece dinnerware set from a man who received the delivery. The blue plates, cups, and bowls decorated with sunflowers turned out to be made from 45 pounds of cocaine!

It was sent by recorded delivery from Venezuela to Barcelona via London.

Now police have arrested a 35-year-old Spanish man, known only as JVLL, who is believed to have received the crockery in the mail, after an international investigation.

They believe JVLL was forced into the deal by Venezuelan drug lords. The dealers had hoped to treat the drug and then sell it in Catalonia, police said.

I'd say, sounds like a movie that would kick Forest Gump's ass. Meh, give it 5-10 years, I'm sure a script is kicking around somewhere.

No, unfortunately my great grand papa died a year before I was born, and up until that, was estranged from the family after he was caught smuggling liquor into the US. Apparently, he burst through the door, grabbed his shotgun, screamed "They're coming to get me May (great grandma)" and ran out of the house... contact was sparse after that... incident.
