I agree the DEA is probably not posing as the UPS guy on this case, but you are wrong about the DEA playing dress up. They have used USPS, FEDEX, UPS, power company, phone repair, cable repair, and even pizza delivery uniforms to make a bust. It gets them to the door without arousing attention from within. It also depends on what was being shipped and how much. 100 oxy's no way, 500 oxy's maybe, 1000+ absolutely. I have seen them use UPS and Fedex uniforms for one pound Marijuana deliveries. It's called a controlled delivery of an intercepted shipment. Happens all the time. It is amazing how many idiots will try to ship a kilo of cocaine or pot via UPS or Mail.
Regular OP meds in regular amounts, not a chance.
Not unless the recipient is a cop. They did a controlled delivery of 100 tabs of Rohypnol to a Sheriff's Deputy in Littleton, CO using a Postal Inspector dressed as a mail carrier. It was from famadrug in 1999 or 2000 and many people here were ordering that drug and apparently nobody else but that LEO got it in a controlled delivery. When Customs called the Denver Metro Drug Task Force to say they had some goodies, the locals recognized that the recipient was a cop and that's what made them do the big charade for only 100 pills. Of course, even though it's just a C-IV, the federal prison term for possession of "any amount" is three years. They found Thai Valiums in the search of his house. I think he lost his job and career but did not get any prison time ... please correct me if that's wrong. He said that he had PTSD (mostly anxiety and insomnia) from being one of the first responders at the Columbine High School Massacre.
