19-year-old Hong Kong woman faces life in prison for allegedly importing crystal meth to Australia via mail

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-36034772

"Police agencies launched a joint operation in November 2015 after a package arrived in Melbourne containing 1kg of meth.

Three more shipments containing about 28kg of the drug were allegedly linked to the woman before she was arrested on Wednesday.

Police also allege the woman imported 700g of the precursor ephedrine. "

I knew Asians were stereotyped as overachievers but this is a little impressive for someone not even 20 yet :P

This was Walter Whites illegitamate daughter, Wanda Wong.

She could easily be just the drop, and taking the fall. Sounds more likely to me.

28kg, huh? Yeah, that might warrant a controlled delivery...

28KG........the only time that would not be a lifetime supply is if you had access to 28KG then its probably 2 year supply at best.

She will get 10-15 years aka "life in prison "and paroled after 5yrs

She will have been in an Australian University. I've had customers from Hong Kong at a London University order quite a lot of my stuff, to send to a cousin at uni in Australia.

Could be the same woman.

Most of the UK's meth is imported by Hong Kong gangs. It used to be rdeally good meth, but Hank described it as "atrocious" now. Hardly any is getting through, and he thinks its got some kind of new cut in it.

The stuff I was asked to fix over new year was prtty awful, but there was no cut in it. I estimate it was about 80% pure. It was damp from something which seemed a lot like ethylene glycol (antifreeze), and was full of inorganic salt - ammonium chloride. Its harmless but its not meth. It also had that coconut / lime / cigar / coffee taste from energizer lithium batteries, which took me back to BBMC's "shake n bake" experiments (we tested every method before settling on the current one. We broke our silence on drug chemistry sites to advise Americans to use an empty fire extinguisher rather than a soda siphon bottle because it can take any pressure without setting you on fire.)

The Chinese meth uses liquid ammonia at -33C, its not shake n bake but its gone from well-made to badly made, there has even been some under-reduced stuff with the nauseating taste of ephedrine.

Most of the world trade in meth involves Hong Kong gangs. They each have their own tunnel under the sea to the Chinese mainland, and because it was British until recently they have good contacts with commonwealth countries like Australia, New Zealand, Canada and (of course) the mother country.

Hong Kong meth dealers must be the most-professional in the world. Good guys who I used to let hang out in the lab bause they were interested to see how its made.

One of the biggest meth dealers in London was a young woman from Hong Kong. The biggest dealer is in prison for an unrelated offence at the moment. We used to get on, until his Thai girlfriends helped with the development of "Black magic" and I got her a little bit pregnant.

Meth is a very strange drug.

Oh, and that's the last time I try irony on an American-dominated sub like this. I don't really smoke "dramatically" to Shirley bassey records,throwing the meth bong down at the end like Liz Taylor thrfowing an engagement ring!

She's just the fall guy (girl)


[1 Points] None:

Police agencies participating in joint operations?!!?!?! Fucking pigs!!! They aren't supposed to smoke joints!

I do agree. Either way we look at it, this chick was not just hoofing some tiners here.
