Task Force 51/5-Led Operation Leads to Seizure of Narcotics At Sea
06 December 2024
From NAVCENT Public Affairs
U.S. 5TH FLEET AREA OF OPERATIONS – The U.S. Coast Guard Sentinel-class fast response cutter Glen Harris (WPC 1144) interdicted a large cache of illicit narcotics at sea in international waters, Nov. 25.
 
The boarding team discovered and seized 5,316.1 kilograms of hashish, 181.4 kilograms of heroin and 1.3 kilograms of methamphetamine and, after documenting and weighing the illicit haul, properly disposed of it. Total estimated market value of the narcotics is $4.6 million.
 
Glen Harris was supporting a Task Force (TF) 51/5 mission at the time of the seizure.

I wonder what constitutes 'proper disposal'?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
