Two drug traffickers in California who were arrested last week for being in possession of 150,000 fentanyl pills — enough to kill millions of people — were released back onto the streets, officials said.
Jose Zendejas, 25, and Benito Madrigal, 19, both from Washington, were arrested during a traffic stop-turned-drug bust in Tulare on Friday. They were booked into the Tulare County Pre-Trial Facility on charges of possession, transportation and selling of illegal drugs, officials said.

Ain’t America Great?
Let me guess: Soros-funded judge or DA, right?
Some one slipped the drugs into their kit without them knowing?
And after releasing the two criminals, California authorities probably apologized to them for interrupting their fentanyl SUPPLY CHAIN.
Why bother to arrest people who are let go?
May as well just confiscate the drugs and tell the perps to have a nice day.
The release on recognizance for that quantity of drugs, particularly if the defendants have no connection to Tulare County, makes me wonder if the traffic stop interrupted a controlled delivery by the defendants, acting on behalf of law enforcement, to a distributor. I think there is more to this story.
Providing a service to eliminating unnecessary carbons for a cleaner planet via climate change? Maybe he’ll get a medal?
Did they get the pills back?
They probably claimed it’s for personal use…
Yeah - sounds like a protected shipment. Election coming up, and big players can’t have their campaign cash interrupted.
and an apology.
I wonder if the same amount of Fentanyl was discovered dumped in one of their reservoirs, they’d actually give a damn.
Yeah, I know. /s
Give them the Singapore treatment
[150,000 fentanyl pills — enough to kill millions of people —]
Exactly how BIG were these pills?
I would have been very happy to have forced them to ingest at least 10 pills each——
Live by the sword-—DIE by the swiord.

I’d have them swinging from the gallows this morning. Do that enough and you have a powerful object lesson.
Us99 in CA is notorious for tight traffic enforcement.
