Not long ago, I posted a story about someone's dog eating meth on a walk through Auckland, and now this?

Was this a smuggling operation gone wrong perhaps?

That's what I thought, and in this economy?

For serious! Up to 300 doses? Something doesn't sound right about this.

That's why I made the comment about a smuggling operation gone wrong in the description, I suspect this was how the drugs got into the country in the first place.

Someone who donated the wrong bag.

In my thought process, a community spirited drug dealer is preparing their regular donation to the city mission, mistakenly they put their bag of edibles in rather than the regular lollies.

Next thing is, the users get pissed getting regular lollies, gang land hit and low budget John Wick shenanigans.

Sounds like it's not a bag of edibles. One lolly contained 300 doses, so more likely a smuggling operation where they would split it later.

Seriously, this is a shit situation.

[–] Ilovethebomb 3 points 3 months ago

Yeah, smuggling operation gone wrong was also my first theory.

Oh boy new Halloween scare just dropped.

I wonder if it was a post to the wrong address type import where they expected to intercept the package. Turns up on someones doorstep that didn't order them, and they dont want them so donate them

It's an interesting idea actually.
