    This is pretty much the norm.

    Like, “dead drops” have a lot of good reasons to be a thing. If you’re snuggling over a million worth of coke between Canada and America, it’s not a small time operation, they might do this weekly. It’s better to lose product than someone get caught and talk or a handoff goes wrong.

    This is just breakage.
