    Turkish thugs beat the Brit in the holding cell. That Brit ain't seen nothin' yet. General population in a Turkish prison is going to be rough.

    That's the movie. Saw it years ago. Have read a couple books about prisons in foreign countries. Makes prison here look like a cakewalk

    I saw a US Marine that did a few years in a prison in Philippines. He looked like a holocaust suvivor.

    Why? There are grow houses all over the UK. They don't need to import it.
    Just two suitcases of it?
    Who is dumb enough to fly with a suitcase full of weed anyway?

    As bad as Turkey is, they are lucky they didn't get busted in Thailand.

    Remember the tv show "I almost got away with it"? Lots of episodes of people attempting to smuggle dope for a quick buck through the airport/customs and got busted. 30 years in a Turkish prison..

    Looking at her pictures, the word "Bimbo" keeps popping in my mind.

    You know you like her looks and you've probably already sent flowers to her.

    If they have access to plenty of money they can probably bribe their way out. Maybe.
