Its more than double the previous record discovered at the airport, 55 pounds seized in August of 2000.

Sounds like some of the major players are getting back in the Biz ?

The Dominicans are heavily involved in cocaine import-export. This past year they busted a cocaine ring controlled by the Dominicans. They were selling to the Italians and Bikers.

If you're talking the Philadelphia LCN, I doubt they had any connection to this.

I agree with you ivy. Philadelphia drug trade is mostly run by black and some hispanic kingpins.
Heres an episode of mob talk where anastasia talks about the drug trade in philly.
