A toy helicopter is believed to have been used in an attempt to smuggle drugs into a prison.
Guards at Elmley Prison in Sheerness, Kent, spotted the remote control miniature aircraft flying over the walls of the jail and heading for the accommodation blocks one night after it was picked up by CCTV cameras.
It had a small load beneath the fuselage, thought to contain drugs.
The toy or its cargo was not found. [Daily Mail]
Face it, there’s nothing anyone can do to stop drug smuggling robots. They’re just gonna get cheaper and more sophisticated. You can’t chase them because they’re faster than you. You can’t shoot them down because you’ll miss and your bullets will land in a school yard miles away. And you can’t fingerprint them because they’ll kick your ass.
Pretty much the only way to stop drug smuggling robots from wreaking major havoc is to legalize drugs.


any technology the drug gangs develop is for sale to terrorists
Like the high tech hard to detect submarines I was reading about being developed by some local inventor in the swamps of the Central American Caribbean coast.
I love the Google ads here for...
...radio-controlled helicopters! ;-)
