Two Britons were found guilty on Wednesday of an elaborate plot to smuggle cocaine into the country by surgically implanting packets of the drug inside two Labrador dogs.

Gregory Graham, 27, and Kaye Chapman, 20, plotted to smuggle 1.3 kilograms of cocaine into Britain hidden inside the stomachs of golden Labrador Rex and black Labrador Frispa.

But the scheme was foiled when officials at Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport became suspicious at the behavior of Rex and Frispa when they arrived from Colombia en route to London's Stansted Airport.

Rex was lively (no kidding?) but a drugs package had burst inside Frispa and she was lying apathetically. (OD)

Dutch vets operated on the dogs, removing 11 cylindrical objects from Rex and 10 from Frispa, who later died.

This is not the first time I've read of a smuggler using a dog as his mule; though it's been several years.

Either way, I wouldn't have any qualms with these two getting the chair.

The chair would be too quick for these SOB's (IMHO)...
