Cheyenne Petryszyn appeared in court Friday for her sentencing after pleading guilty to two counts of aggravated supply of dangerous drugs in a correctional facility.
Drug dealer flew drone carrying $75K in opioids, porn-filled USB drive into prison yard::Cheyenne Petryszyn was sentenced after admitting to her role in a smuggling plot that involved launching a drone to deliver drugs and porn to a Queensland, Australia, prison.
Nearby, they recovered a sealed bag crammed with 79 strips of the opioid buprenorphine, 0.94 grams of methamphetamine and the USB drive that was found to contain pornography, prosecutors said.
Is $75k the prison value here or something? Seems like an incredibly random value for such a small amount.
A crown prosecutor told the court the woman’s role in the plot was to obtain the drugs for Knudson to sell inside the prison, where a single strip of buprenorphine can fetch close to $1,000.
There are android tablets issued to inmates, I doubt that they're really allowed to use them with external media, though, if they even have non-propriatery ports to begin with.
I'm kind of surprised they didn't just fly in at 400 ft and drop the stuff in a corner of the yard. Use a little tiny drone that doesn't make a lot of noise and just make drops while people are in the yard.
This is why my hobbies are being regulated into oblivion.
If you look at this and think "haha yes keep doing it!" go fuck yourself, the idiots who make the rules hear things like that and panic regulate without even looking into things.
