The drugs were covered in pepper to divert sniffer dogs and sealed in several layers of plastic and other wrappers. Police had been on the trail since August.
Seven people were arrested in the drug seizure. Police said the haul would have a street value of about $17.5 million. Peru is the world's No. 2 cocaine producer after Colombia, and many of its drugs end up on U.S. streets after being sent via Mexico.

Using gigantic undersea tentacled monstrosities as drug mules?
Cthulhu will not be pleased.

Especially if that was his private stash.
I won't eat squid on principle. I don't snort them either. Cocaine - the golf of the drug world.
Someone should have told the squid that swallowing baggies like that is dangerous.
They never listen. You put up posters in their ocean trenches, you have speakers come to talk to their schools, but it does no good. One trip to the US pays them more than an entire year's worth of krill back home, and many of them can't resist.
I blame society. Coming from where they do, it's either the drug trade or the pro sperm whale wrestling circuit, but no one else will employ them.
It's why you never see giant squid working in Starbucks.
