Is $75k the prison value here or something? Seems like an incredibly random value for such a small amount.
Yeah this is the second time I've seen this story and the first time didn't try to include a dollar amount.
Whoever wrote this pulled the number from their ass for clicks.
It’s the NY Post so that checks out honestly.
Well it is Australia, have you seen their drug prices?
I bet they counted the cost of the porn too. Special collectors edition DVD box sets, of course.
Naturally
As said in the article, yes. Prison prices.
No no... you've got it all wrong. It's $75,000 total value for the drugs plus the porn.
So it's like $10,000 worth of drugs and $65,000 worth of porn. After all, you can cream a lot of porn into a USB drive these days.
For anyone doubting that the porn is worth that much, well... you'll just have to watch it and decide for yourself.
Damn, I had a lot of s*** to do this week but how can I walk away from this challenge?
