I'm kind of aghast at this, and at the spectacular ignorance and malice displayed by the police and ICE officers involved.
(But—as a retired pharmacist who studied drugs of botanic origin decades ago—I once got to handle a sample of raw Turkish opium. The perfumiers at YSL absolutely nailed the odour, to a first approximation: if the cops had some sort of drug familiarization training it's almost an understandable mistake—at least until it goes to the lab for testing.)
