>> You can't exactly flush a kilogram of cocaine down the average toilet in a matter of minutes

I would think you could - that's the 'brick' size you see in the movies, I would guess you could flush that down in 2-3 flushes as long as it didn't clump up too bad.

Easy solution. Turn off the water to the house and they'll get one flush, two at the most.

That is way too logical and cost-effective. Plus then they wouldn't get to use the cool-as-shit flashbangs that their dept got on the cheap.

I posted this above as well, but cocaine is extremely water soluble -- 2 grams per ml of water will dissolve, or a little over 20 times the solubility of baking soda. Even with a low-flow modern 1.28 gallon toilet, it certainly wouldn't "clump up" -- more like instantly disintegrate.
