If you ship drugs with UPS or Fedex, law enforcement will dress up as the driver and personally deliver your package. They arrest you as soon as you sign for it

  What? I doubt that would hold up in court. I sign for packages all the time without knowing what they are, does signing for a package really mean anything other than "I've received a package and it doesn't look damaged"? Should I be making the UPS and FedEx guy wait as I open every package in front of them to confirm someone isn't maliciously sending me drugs?

    I remember this happened to a minor league baseball coach for the Red Barrons back in the '90s. Basically, someone who knew the guy wanted to send the coach an envelope with cocaine in it. So the genius gave the envelope to his secretary to mail. The secretary accedently spilled some coffee on the envelope and decided to open it to check the contents. She found the drugs and called the police. The police, now having the drugs and the guy that was going to send them, hatch a plan. First, they mail the drugs to the coach. Then shortly after the envelope arrives they search the coach's room. Low and behold they find cocaine and the coach is arrested. I'm not sure how it turned out but it looks like the coach is still coaching to this day: http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=19960523&slug=2330759 http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=199...
