(Tucson, AZ) -- Forty-seven pounds of heroin, a vehicle, and a Mexican citizen are in custody today after being discovered yesterday at the Nogales port of entry. At about 1:15 p.m. Monday, a U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer noticed the driver of a Volkswagen Jetta seemed nervous, which led further questioning and subsequent inspection of the vehicle. As a result, officers found 47-pounds of heroin in 24 packages hidden in compartments in the rear area of the car. The vehicle and drugs were seized, and the driver was turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials.

I was so glad to hear from you on my blog! You are one of the few that got what I meant about the "American Beauty" scene. I think only if you have experienced great sadness, you understand the bittersweet meaning there. Thanks for stopping by. I have a picture of Marina in my images file (the blond haired braids) and every time I open that file, she is smiling at me.

PS send me an email, I can't find your email address. Let me know if you ever started any educational projects for young adults. You talked of it once?
