At this point, nothing — and we mean absolutely nothing — should shock you as it pertains to the 2016 Rio Olympics. The latest ridiculousness involves drug dealers who are using the Olympic logo to promote their cocaine.
This is happening now in Rio, according to author and reporter Alex Caudros.

There seems to be no end to the negativity surrounding the upcoming Rio Games.
We’ve already heard about countless outrageous happenings, including a mutilated body showing up on the same beach that is to be used for volleyball, raw sewage and super bacteria in the same waters to be used for aquatic events, the Olympic Village being deemed unfit to live in and a New Zealand jiu-jitsu competitor who was kidnapped by police.
Oh, and the Olympic mascot jaguar was also shot dead after it escaped after a torch-lighting ceremony.
This isn’t even taking into account the millions upon millions being spent while the citizens of Rio and the surrounding areas live in hovels — at best — and deal with raw sewage running through the streets.
So it’s no surprise whatsoever that drug dealers would seek to besmirch the Olympic logo in this way. At this point, we’re scared to ask the question, “what else could possibly go wrong?”
