Guess it didn’t get seized and we won’t ever know the hole story
I think we can all see the story … the hole is a black hole of banks, corrupt politicians, and the most incredible level of hypocrisy ever exhibited in the “war against drugs.”
According to the WSJ, owner + operator provided $10M cash + $40M surety bond. Seizure still pending. 16 non-charged crew released. Ship returning to Rotterdam for next cargo run.
I bet that wont ever enter US waters again??
Just WHO posts this BS on here?!! Is it $50 Million or $50,000 - then it says “nearly nearly cocaine”
Doesn’t anyone proof what they write anymore?? …disgusting…and this was a Headline Article
I see you replied to me but WTF are you talking about?

Thanks for confirming my observations!!
It looks like the CBP’s seizure of MSC Gayane got nixed by more powerful interests and it’s back to business as usual.

The parasite politicians know where the campaign money comes from … that’s all that matters.
I believe they were allowed 90 days to return the vessel to the US when it was released on the $50 million bond back in Philadelphia.
Nothing is likely to happen but that was what I remember reading a month or so ago.
It looks like this crew didn’t go big enough.
The wheels of justice continue to grind…
