This week’s Contraband: Seized at the Airport takes us on another trip through the baggage carousels of anxiety, this time highlighting the, I would imagine, not that common occurrence of preachers and their wives running afoul of customs.
A K9 unit zeroes in on a seemingly pious couple, leading to a confession that would make any Sunday sermon a bit more interesting: the wife is packing cocaine.
Elsewhere, customs officials encounter a Brazilian traveler with a unique take on the souvenir doll – two plastic figures stuffed with white crystals that aren’t exactly sugar. Is this a new smuggling technique, or just remarkably bad taste in travel gifts?
Tune in to find out if these cases are as straightforward as they initially appear, or if there are more layers to these smuggling stories than meets the eye. It’s the kind of reality TV that reminds us the world is stranger than fiction, and airport security has seen it all.
Contraband: Seized at the Airport: The Cocaine Preacher airs Monday October 28, 2024 at 9.00pm on Discovery.
