Look up the O'Hare Cohiba Seizure from 2 or 3 years back around November.. It's another massive seizure, except in the US. I'm sure the Customs officers appreciated a few years of free cigars to burn... One.. By One.. By One..

No more like once something happens no one cares to follow up, other than the owner of the goods. And the owner isn't going to bother advertising the outcome. Now if you bothered many governments do publicly announce things, for those willing to look into things. However again apathy rules the day.

And I'm so tired of people repeating that last fallacy. Right up there with cigars from an online merchant are different from those bought in a retail store.
