The stakes are high on Discovery’s “Contraband: Seized at the Border,” as U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents work tirelessly to intercept illegal goods and maintain security. This Monday’s episode, “Paper, Plastic or Ammo?,” finds the border on high alert following a recent gun show in the U.S., raising concerns about weapons smuggling attempts.
The tension ratchets up when officers encounter a man returning to Mexico with groceries. His story about where he shopped doesn’t add up, triggering suspicion. Is he hiding something more than just produce? Meanwhile, a drug smuggler faces a critical choice: cooperate with authorities or risk serious jail time.
“Contraband: Seized at the Border” offers a firsthand look at the challenges faced by the men and women tasked with protecting the U.S. border. See what they uncover Monday, May 12 at 9:00 PM ET on Discovery.
