“I thought it was a passenger who smuggled it aboard.”
.
It was.
Some folks here seem to skip over the actual content and go with the headline.

A few questions here. First, the article says that the plane/passenger was searched by Alaska State Troopers before the plane departed. When did they search it/her? Prior to the passenger boarding? After the passenger boarded but the plane hadn’t left the ramp? Is such an inspection routine or was there some reason to suspect the passenger was carrying prohibited alcohol? Was the pilot required to inspect the passenger’s luggage? In any case it appears that the beer never reached to community where alcohol is prohibited. How then can anyone be charged with delivery of a banned substance when it never got delivered? Sound like bullshit to me.
