Meanwhile, a major bust exposed Ryshawd Tywone Irving, accused of trafficking hundreds of pounds of marijuana hidden in dog food containers—with street value over $900K.

Authorities continue to dismantle this trafficking network and shield vulnerable victims. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
