making the rabbi into a drug mule

These guys must have a really good relationship with the rabbi!

They were purchasing 1.5 million NIS worth of cocaine form their supplier in the island of St. Lucia, and they came up with a great idea how to deflect suspicion form the shipment, and away from them. instead of giving their own addresses for the delivery, they gave the local rabbis address! Also, they shipped it via regular post office! I didn't know that is how drug dealers deliver their packages.. it seems kind of risky to use official post office services for such a thing.

Maybe this qualifies these guys for the Darwin Award...

Anyway, after waiting for their package impatiently, they kept asking the rabbi if it came yet, they checked with the post office a number of times, etc., it finally arrived. What they did not know is that it had already been stopped by officials, and the cocaine had been swapped out for flour. After the package was picked up, the investigators swooped in and made the arrests.

It turns out the rabbi was not involved - they used his address without his permission. Not only that but he testified against them to the fact that they had asked repeatedly if the package arrived. So when they claimed they knew nothing of it, this was refuted by the rabbis testimony!

I wonder what they said when they asked the rabbi for the package and he said "why did you ship to my house?", as anybody would say in such a situation (regardless of the package containing drugs).

It takes a certain amount of gall to ship drugs through the rabbi, via the post office...Maybe they were stoned when they did it!

    It never ceases to amaze me how people living in such a special country as Israel find the time to throw their lives away on such meaningless activities. I guess the human failing of avarice is stronger than the appreciation of freedom: because freedom is, as far as I understand it, and despite the harrassment and persecution of neighboring countries, what Israel is all about.

  2. Shipping to another's address is a well-known drug smuggling tactic. usually, this is done without the presumed recipient's awareness, as the smuggler's intercept the delivery and sign for it at their home.

    My guess is that when the package was delayed (while the investigators swapped out flour for the drugs) they got worried that they'd missed the delivery, and that's why they started asking the rabbi about it.
