webfact Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Bangkok teen arrested with 8 million pills, 37kg of ‘ice’ By The Nation A 17-year-old boy was arrested on Wednesday night in Bangkok with 8.67 million methamphetamine pills, 37 kilograms of crystal meth, 2,822 ecstasy pills, 38 kilograms of crystal ketamine and 569 bottles of ketamine solution. The arrest was announced at a press conference at the Royal Thai Police headquarters by Pol General Chalermkiart Sriworakhan. Chalermkiart said police staked out an apartment on Soi Lard Pra Khao 37 in Lard Prao district at 10pm after learning that a major drug ring had been storing drugs there to distribute in Bang Khen, Chatuchak, Lard Prao, Khan Na Yao and Min Buri districts. The teen was arrested after police saw him walking out while carrying a bag. Some drugs were found in the bag and the rest later discovered in his room. Chalermkiart said the drug had been smuggled from the North for distributing in entertainment venues in the Bangkok districts.

I sat and watched Breaking Bad all the way through earlier this week. Well worth a second viewing. 1lb = $40,000 so 37Kg = $3,256,000 (give or take) Edited June 7, 2018 by BritManToo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You count a thousand of each type, weigh that thousand including representative packaging and then weight that type in total. Then apply simple multiplication. Or, if all packages of that type are the same, just count one, fully. Edited June 7, 2018 by The Deerhunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would take longer than counting all those drugs. I have the whole thing on HDD but gave up after the bath with the body in it fell through the floor in about episode 3 or 4. Belief not suspended for me! Everyone else says it's wonderful but life is too short for that stuff with me.

Ok we have to count them. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 However, this guy knows what he is doing for a while. He will be out when he is 96. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well worth a second viewing. 1lb = $40,000 so 37Kg = $3,256,000 (give or take) Take out all the pills and stack them up on top of each other. Assuming a thickness of 2mm, the height of the total stack (16 kilometres) just needs to be divided by two to get the number of pills. Naturally this won't work with the Heisenberg Blue, due to its irregular shape. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cereal Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 And a young kid, possibly desperate for money and very likely taken advantage of for that need, will be imprisoned for years, maybe till death, while the kingpins will likely never be brought to justice.
