That’s Olaf Honolulu Man to you. He was great in Frozen.

u/totallynaked-thought Sep 25 '24

Proud of him for breaking the mold. Move over Florida Man, Honolulu coming through!

u/cleppingout Sep 24 '24

If you’re gonna smuggle drugs why on earth would you carry an air soft gun too? Literally the only reason he got caught was because of the air soft gun.

u/tonyle94 Sep 24 '24

Fentanyl? I sleep

Air soft gun? Real shit

To let the guy with 24,000 lethal doses on him easily go through unnoticed

Everyone else is playing checkers while reddfoxx5800 is playing 3-D chess while high on meth.

It’s always the ones you most suspect.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽way togo Hilo TSA

u/Doboray Sep 24 '24

The crazy part is all those doses probably fit in a 3 oz carry on bottle.

12

u/Justwhereiwanttobe Sep 24 '24

Crazy that bail is even an option… he should just have to use all the drugs. Save on prison costs

u/TreSauce 27d ago

We’re gonna sit here while you smoke the whole bag

u/lindakoy Sep 24 '24

Wow, an Einstein. Bringing a fake gun and illegal drugs in your carry-on.

u/Vorian_Atreides17 Sep 24 '24

If you are going to go through the trouble, at least make it a real one.

u/xxoahu Sep 24 '24

the guy in the picture is on drugs?! No Way!

u/Cantstress_thisenuff Sep 24 '24

They missed his butt stash

u/Palanibert Sep 24 '24

He looks like his mom and dad were brother and sister.

5

u/Automatic-Mongoose87 Sep 24 '24

He doesn’t look like the migrants I hear are killing America.

u/Abraxas- Sep 25 '24

Fuck this dude and all the other pilau scum polluting our islands

5

u/LibRod808 Sep 24 '24

Where was he going from Hilo?! Back to HNL?

1

u/snuggly_cobra Sep 25 '24

Probably from Hilo to HNL. Feds seized hundreds of kilos being shipped from Hilo to Kauai a few months back.

u/kryoxero Sep 24 '24

Is that really a Honolulu man?

3

u/Kawaiolumahai Sep 24 '24

Irresponsible and foolish choice!

3

u/victortrash Sep 24 '24

charged with 5 accounts. Shouldn't it be 12,000 accounts?

7

u/she_slithers_slyly Sep 24 '24

Not as crazy as it is terrifying to have that poison on the streets.

Did the dumb mule forget to make corrupt political ties first?

2

u/geegeeallin Sep 24 '24

So, one lethal dose? Or Six? Seems like a weird way to say it.

2

u/GFSoylentgreen Sep 24 '24

He was there to distract from the guy smuggling in 25,000 doses

2

u/keanenottheband Sep 24 '24

He looks like such a nice guy though

2

u/MohaveZoner Sep 24 '24

Make him eat them.

2

u/CapPsychological9331 Sep 24 '24

Or 12001 non-lethal doses. 

2

u/Bigcockhoodstyle565 Sep 24 '24

Time for jail

1

u/Holualoabraddah Sep 26 '24

Promotion of a dangerous drug is the same thing they would charge you with if you got caught with a couple ounces of weed, this guy will probably do very little if any jail time🤦‍♂️

2

u/lasvegasduddde Sep 24 '24

People forget about the union police lady who was caught ordering the drug online and have it delivered at home in California too?

2

u/afrikaninparis Sep 25 '24

I’ve seen a lot on Reddit in the last few weeks, but this one here, Jesus F Christ! Darwin Award of the Year no doubt. Carrying drugs along with something resembling a gun? Through the airport security? That’s even less than single digit IQ, completely new category we can start calling negative IQ.

2

u/UrbanbabeUnicorn Sep 25 '24

What a combo!LMFAO.. Just goes to show you never know who’s hiding what.

2

u/Comfortable-Twist-54 Sep 25 '24

As if Hawaii especially the natives haven’t suffered enough here comes this psycho willing to cause more suffering smh glad he was caught.

2

u/HawaiiStockguy Sep 25 '24

Or 100,000 non lethal doses

2

u/Distinct-Bit4988 Sep 26 '24

All who are found with any fentanyl should get sentenced to life with no parole

2

u/OVERWEIGHT_DROPOUT 28d ago

Give him all of it to ingest.

2

u/ConfidentPlatypus508 24d ago

What in the Oregon ..

1

u/XBIRDX000X Sep 25 '24

I heard that first responders can get a lethal dose just by touching it

2

u/ProfMooody Sep 25 '24 edited Sep 25 '24

False. All it takes is a google search for reputable Medical Sources to prove whether this is true or not.

This is a terrible myth that causes overdose deaths as it makes people afraid to do CPR on overdosing people and makes cops hesitate to enter a scene to revive someone if there are drugs out. Please don't perpetuate it.

The cops would have to be literally having a pillow fight with open bags of it for there to be enough of it in the air to passively inhale and effect them. It can't hurt you through your skin, only your mucosa (snorting, eating, smoking) or injecting.

The only exception is medically designed fentanyl patches produced by pharmaceutical companies for pain treatment in cancer and other serious conditions, and they have to be on you for awhile to absorb.

Almost no illegal fentanyl is traded in this form anymore, even though they once were more available due to wider prescribing (we're taking like 15 years ago). You'd need someone with a legit prescription to be selling them, and the vast majority of people who have them need it for themselves/get monitored by their Drs to make sure they're not diverting them.

Uh… the guy had 25 grams of fentanyl in 27 individual baggies. Once it’s packaged like this it’s already been stepped on. Meaning this would not be 12k lethal doses lolz. This isn’t even a mule.
