    Default Import and Trafficking of Heroin

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: California

    My brother has been involved in the trafficking of Heroin from Singapore direct to Los Angeles for the past few years. Not only has he been a mule, he is also very addicted. I am have been worried about him and would like to get him some help in the form of treatment. It is my belief that he needs "tough love" and that getting caught may get him the help he needs. He is about to make another run tonight and this will be the first day of his new life. I have already called Singapore Airlines and the airport letting them know that he is traveling with a substance. Should I also let authorities know in the Staes in case he slips through in Singapore? Thanks in advance for your advice

    You do realize that Singapore executes people for trafficking illegal drugs right?

    the only "treatment" he will be getting is a rope around his neck at Changi Prison

    Per wikipedia article:
    Quote Quoting Misuse of Drugs Act
    The Singapore embarkation card contains a warning to visitors about the death penalty for drug trafficking. Warning signs can also be found at the Johor-Singapore Causeway and other border entries.

    Under Schedule 2 of the Misuse of Drugs Act,[15][16] any person importing, exporting, or found in possession of more than the following quantities of drugs receives a mandatory death sentence:

    1200 grammes of opium and containing more than 30 grammes of morphine (§5 and §7, (2)(b));
    30 grammes of morphine (§5 and §7, (3)(b));
    15 grammes of diamorphine (heroin) (diamo (§5 and §7, (4)(b));
    30 grammes of cocaine (§5 and §7, (5)(b));
    500 grammes of cannabis (§5 and §7, (6)(b));
    1000 grammes of cannabis mixture (§5 and §7, (7)(b));
    200 grammes of cannabis resin (§5 and §7, (8)(b));
    250 grammes of methamphetamine (§5 and §7, (9)(b)).

    Tough love, indeed....

    If you want him detained and prosecuted if and when he reaches the U.S. with drugs, then it would make sense to report his actions to U.S. legal authorities.
