This ruse went up in smoke.
A New Jersey Uber Eats driver thought she was delivering a customer a burrito when a strong, unmistakable odor led her to discover she was actually muling marijuana, according to police.
The woman picked up what appeared to be a normal food order from a location in Lindenwold, Camden County, on Friday night — a burrito wrapped up in tin foil, a soup and a water bottle, according to Washington Township Police.
But as she was driving she recognized the odor coming from the bag of food — and it wasn’t carnitas.
…
She pulled over and called the police.
An officer arrived and “inspected the package curbside and determined that it was not a burrito meal,” said Gurcsik.
“There was no meat, or lettuce or beans or rice. It was actually an ounce of marijuana,” he said.
The drivers angle was that they didn’t want to be a mule.
Not everyone is cool with drugs, and its fine if they aren’t. They weren’t asked and they didn’t volunteer.
Report it to the company… Not everything needs the police, Karen.
Ain’t weed legal in Jersey anyway?
What a stupid thing to say. Alcohol is legal so I’m going to make bathtub moonshine and sell it illegally and pretend its a burrito?
Just because you can sell it in one way doesn’t make it a free for all. And yes, if the driver found out about it and doesn’t report it then they are complicit in the crime which carries penalties.
I bet they aren’t getting any more than the shitty delivery rate, that’s not worth getting a record for.
what is the crime here again?
edit: that’s what i thought, Karen 🤡
talking out of your ass again lol
