A man is staring down 20 years in prison after Border Patrol agents realized the suspiciously large bulge in his pants, which he claimed was his anatomy, was actually two critically endangered parakeets. The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Southern California confirmed that 35-year-old Jesse Agus Martinez was stopped by Customs and Border Protection, or CBP, at the U.S.-Mexico border on October 23.
According to TMZ, agents noticed a very questionable lump in his trousers. You can imagine the scene; they must have been immediately suspicious of the unusual shape. When questioned about the massive protrusion, Martinez reportedly tried to pass the bulge off as his “mighty man-meat.”
