A
baggage handler at New York City’s John F. Kennedy international Airport was
sentenced to life in prison for in-flight drug trafficking, including hiding
cocaine inside sensitive wing assembly components, potentially threatening
passengers’ lives. It’s sad, because he
was the only handler who was actually careful with the luggage.
Though
federal prosecutors got their conviction, the case had gotten confusing when
drugs that were supposed to be shipped to one city were often diverted to
another.
