The Florida Keys are an ideal place to offload drugs. Bricks of cocaine - "square grouper" - frequently surface in the ocean. Square grouper has made some locals rich.

    How much is a brick of cocaone worth? Theyre like “Oh some keep them despite the risk”. Because. Like. Yeah. That might be a life changing amount of money if you can find a way to offload it.

          I have an answer of sorts - it’s geography dependent really. Where I grew up, south of the Sarita border checkpoint on US77, they’re about 8-10k apiece. But everything is cheap there. Including smuggling humans.

          Further inroads, away from major ports, railway hubs, etc they’re likely closer to 15 or more

          Once upon a time when I was younger and much more foolish I took part in a couple small scale border crossings. It’s been some years since I’ve been involved but I still know people who fool w it on both sides of the border.

    David Ovalle has fished and kayaked in the Florida Keys. He has never found cocaine.

    Fun fact: the “key” in Florida Keys stands for “kilos”

        “Cayo” means “cay” but it also can translate to “I fall”
