You get a lot of surprises when you get a used vehicle, but rather than dodgy wiring or intermittent knocking, Charles Preston got half a mil in nose candy. Shit yeah that makes his minivan cooler!
The San Jose psychologist had taken the fulled loaded (pun intended) Chrysler to a mechanic for a brake check and had them check one of the windows that would not roll all the way down. When they removed the panel, found kilos of cocaine inside. Not a bad return on a $14,000 2008 model.
He bought the used van in May 2010 a year ago from Thrifty Car Sales in Santa Clara touse as a rape van haul food he pays for out of his own salary to feed people living on the street. Police have been unable to track down the cocaine's history or identify the dealers, mostly because they didn't leave a luggage tag on it. It previously had been owned by a rental car agency so it's conceivable someone who rented it packed it with cocaine.
Preston tried to return his van to Thrifty for one with less drugs, but was only offered a trade in the van at the current Blue Book value - about $4,000 less than he originally paid, since he'd put about 6,000 miles on the van. We'll, there's also $500,000 less coke in there too, so that is another depreciation.
