Who knew being on Santa’s ‘Naught List’ could grant you Christmas gifts?

That’s what happened at Lee Correctional Institution in South Carolina as a drone was carrying a feast fit for a King to prison inmates to give them some holiday cheer according to Action News Jax.

Some items on the prisoners ‘Christmas List’ for #OperationContrabandChristmas were

  • Steak
  • Crab legs
  • Old Bay Seasoning
  • Marijuana
  • Cigarettes

Before making it to prison inmates prison guards played ‘The Grinch’ and confiscated the package spoiling their Christmas holiday meal.

Now flying a drone near a prison site in South Carolina is a misdemeanor could be punishable by spending 30 days in jail, and contraband is a felony and could be punishable up to 10 years in jail.

No arrests have been made at this time.
