Been seeing a lot of requests for proof when it comes to NL packages being unsafe. I personally believe that the NL return address tipped customs off. I suppose if your packages are super stealth, you may be safe. I wouldn't risk it.
I was arrested on Class X and Class 1 Felonies. I'm white and had money for a good lawyer so I was able to plea down to a Class 4 felony with 2 years probation and 103 days served in jail. If it had been my first offense, I probably would have walked away with no felony record. Again, I'm white and paid for the best criminal lawyer in the state. Sat next to a black dude with the same charges who got sentenced to 3 years in state prison.
Never had any other packages (non-NL sourced) opened or held in customs.

That's interesting. So there's actual weight requirements before feds will attempt CDs? This helps explain some of the randomness - the feds will usually do large packages, but when they're small, it's up to the locals to see whether they care or not.
