If we're getting all the facts, these islands would be a good place to avoid:

Every time I have flown internationally I have pretty much torn apart luggage making sure it is completely empty before packing. Hard to have a lot of sympathy for anyone that makes that kind of easily preventable mistake. I truly hope he can get out of it but no one to blame but himself.

The worst part is that TSA didn't catch it on the outbound flight.

be a good reason not to go to Turks and Caicos plus this travel advisory.......

"What should I be careful about in Turks and Caicos?
Muggings and armed robberies, where victims are confronted by one or more armed criminals, are somewhat common in the Turks and Caicos."

This is real... I was traveling interior Mexico in the late 80's and Federales found some muzzleloading roundballs in my toolbox at a checkpoint. We were detained for several hours until they could go through everything we owned.. they finally believed the story I made up about using the roundballs for a slingshot after paying off several people and offering sincere apology.

He made a big mistake and I would bet money he won't spend time or be convicted.

I hope the state department has become involved in it.
