A retiree discovers he is terminally ill and decides to sell drugs to pay for his funeral and to have something to leave behind for his loved ones.
No, it's not a sexagenarian sequel to Breaking Bad, but instead the legal defence of a 61-year-old retiree from Italy, according to
NBC News.
The retiree was arrested near the city of Bergamo with drugs in tubes meant to carry vitamin C tablets — and $1000 cash
"It didn't surprise us that much," an anonymous officer involved in the case told NBC News.
"The other day we arrested a 71-year-old man with a kilogram of cocaine, and we have even seen mothers hiding drugs in their babies' strollers."
