ENGLISH PRISON FINDS DEAD RATS FULL OF CONTRABAND, DRUGS
So we all know that prison life is often strange and brutal. But we also know that there are markets in prison. Some people want drugs, or just about anything they can’t get access to on the inside. So that means there’s demand. But how do you get these things inside the prison? Well, a prison in England found a new way.

PRISON STAFF MAKING THEIR ROUNDS FOUND DEAD RATS WITH STITCHES
Staff on patrol noticed several dead rats. But they noticed something that was not at all normal. All the rat bodies had stitches up their middles. So they opened the rats up to see what was inside. But as you can guess, they didn’t find rat guts. Those were just gone. Instead, they found 5 cell phones and chargers, 3 SIM cards, cigarette rolling papers as well as drugs like spice and marijuana. Someone had thrown the “mule” rats over the prison fence. But staff found them before any prisoner got to the rats, and their goodies.
