What's going on, just got done talking to my source right now. He just got let go by the Mexican Police for posession of Steroids, but not before getting taxed $1,000 for them to release him.
They're claim: Steroids are illegal even in Mexico, they knew that he was going to try to smuggle them accross the border which is another hit. Also tried to scare him saying it was 3 years in prison and $10,000 fine for that.
He got nabbed for the following reasons:
1. He's a big guy
2. He was walking near the candy store that he purchased all the gear from.
3. He was walking down the street with the black bag that they put the gear in. The police saw the bag and said "Come here, what's in the bag?" So it seems like these signs are what they were looking for.
My take is they just wanted the money from him, but they could have taken him to jail if he didn't have the money.
So start asking yourself is it worth the risk? If it is, just be careful about your trips and how you go about doing things.
