Police DONT CD in the UK

A friend of mine, presumably with poor opsec, ordered 100g of MDMA from NL to UK; The police simply knocked on her door, arrested her and then seized her laptop and phone. She's on bail until March, and due to her situation, young, in education and work with no priors, will most likely get a short suspended sentence.

This is a warning however, LE in the UK don't fuck about, denying ownership of the package isn't gonna stop them seizing your electronics so maintain proper opsec. Use TAILS, don't mention your purchases over SMS or any IM service, encrypt your laptop and phone if you have to.

She will have been arrested on suspicion of having committed an offense, whether she gets charged with anything will depend on if they find anything else or if she admits to anything. If they don't find anything else she will get a letter saying no further action will be taken.

Wait, what happens if someone orders drugs to their enemy's house then? Does British LE arrest anyone getting drugs sent to their house, regardless of their knowledge of what's being sent to their house?

Here in America, even if LE does get its hands on your pack of illegal drugs, you have not taken the pack as your own, and until you do that, you are not in trouble. Its on the LE to prove you did the crime. Always scrub the free space in your laptop & keep it locked down with Veracrypt's whole disc encryption. Read the info at the link below!!!!

That shit sucks. She probably never saw it coming. Sounds like the UKs constitution does not protect your rights to search and seizure. Do you guys have any constitutional rights regarding search and seizure in the uk?

Except if you can afford a decent solicitor then I bet there are a whole bunch of ways to get off.
