My advice sir, you were implying bribery.
'Corruption is not our piece of hamburger.' - President Powell.
Remember that.
I see no Ion interference in his transmission, but I do however see a ';)' in your transmissions, which is indeed very strange.
And you may have paid it, but that does not make you the ideal Liberty citizen, with smuggling and such.
Good day.
Also, do not take the law and try to make it out as a solid thing, with gaps in it. If you must, consider the law a liquid; you do not take the direct meaning of the words, you take the spirit of them, meaning any smuggling, stopped or not, is illegal. Remember that as well.

EXTRA ADDITION
Strange... The captain of the Victorious made his report at 7:00 SMT, and your timestamp clearly says... 10:13 SMT. Three hours and thirteen after the report, given the extra tme to actually make the report, I would guess up to four hours later. You mean you paid the LPI after the evidence was sold?
