Akin dropping bags of cocaine in ocean when customs ship approaches the drug trafficer's boat.

Won't help!

Out of pure curiosity, why won't it ?

because they'll prosecute him anyway since he was price gouging?

I thought the OP was saying that the cocaine example won't help the trafickers

Yeah, and it doesn't, except now they have two crimes, trafficking and destruction of evidence.

Well if they do drop them before the custom ship arrives, what's the evidence for the destruction of evidence, and the trafficking for that matter ?

Some really weird behaving fishes.
