Mia Baggenstos and Reginald Reynolds were recently pulled over in East Portland. They were driving a stolen vehicle and would shortly be arrested on drug charges.
But these were not your average criminals. They were masters of misdirection and subterfuge. Like stage magicians performing the illusion of the century, they nearly got away with possessing 79 fentanyl pills and 12 bags of meth weighing 220 grams.
Here's how they nearly pulled it off:
They hid all the drugs in a bag clearly marked "Definitely not a bag full of drugs."
I thought about getting one of these magic bags myself to see what all the fuss was about, but I got distracted by my own laughter when I saw that it was labeled a "teacher's appreciation gift" on Amazon.
After all was said and done, our criminal magicians were charged with delivering meth, illegally possessing meth, possession of a controlled substance, possessing a stolen vehicle, and the unauthorized use of a vehicle.
Their arrest was part of a recent city-wide crack down on drug dealers and car thefts.
No word yet on whether or not these two were teachers who got this bag as an appreciation gift.
🤣🤣🤣
