The missile was going to be used in a sting. Since the stinging agency was Customs, the sting probably targeted some furriners.

That sounds like a good thing. I have no problem with LEA's on any level using a dummy rocket to catch a theif, a terrorist or a gun runner.

But couldn't something, shouldn't something like this be stored in a locker away from the office? I can't quite picture them bringing the perps to a Federal building to play out their sting.

They had to store it SOMEWHERE while they set up the sting.
