A novel approach to the police destroying a woman's home. The court removed immunity because the Lawyer said the Police used imminent domain to take the house. Thus they are legally responsible to pay for damages done. This is quite the fun find especially since the City it happened in is appealing the decision. All the cities around them told them not too.
Cocaine found floating in the ocean?
You know what that means.
#CocaineShark, coming to an Italian Beach near you. Probably one of those nude ones if they got those.

...NGL, if such a film were as good as Cocaine Bear and had some elements of Jaws 1 in it, I'd watch the shit out of it.

It's not like Columbian smugglers ever dumped cocaine cargo in sea to evade capture.
That reminds me coffee smuggling here. Back in the times of Yugoslavia, there was a hefty import tariff on coffee (and other stuff) so you could make a good profit by getting coffee past customs unnoticed, practically a national sport for Slovenia in those days. But there is only so much coffee you can hide in your car and customs guys knew where those places are, so smuggling through border passes was a lottery.
Then one guy came up with an idea how to smuggle coffee in quantity, past the customs and border guards. You could buy coffee in big waterproof sacks, but that one is rather difficult to hide. They are buoyant enough to float on water surface, but if you tape a sack of salt to it, it will sink just deep enough not to be seen on the surface and be carried with water current, salt gradually melting away so the sack comes to the surface eventually and can be picked up. So they did this on the Drava river, tossing the taped together sacks into river on the Austrian side, on the point where border guards couldn't see them and they had to fish them out before Dravograd hydro power plant, there was a fishing spot that served as cover for this.
Eventually they lost one of the sacks and police realised someone is using river for smuggling, but they still carried on and got caught, apparently through very enthusiastic application of beatings. Such smuggling is now thing of past, but Drava river coffee smuggling is part of local folklore, with tales and songs memorising it.

sigh These utterly dumb simps.
Fine -- let them mutilate and butcher themselves, all so they can appeal to landwhales and 304s that want men who are over six foot tall, have a seven figure income, and have supermodel looks, despite that they themselves looking like relatives of Jabba the fucking Hutt.
What a bunch of nutless twats.

That and, as I understand it, clay tablets were meant to be reusable- you’d wet and wipe them blank.
The only reason we have this is because he kept his bad reviews/hate mail and that his house happened to burn down at just the right temperature to bake the clay.
