We’ve taken in about $3.5 million worth of heroin, cocaine, marijuana, various pills, Oxycontin and things of that nature,Great! They could sell those things on the street for that much, and plug some much-needed holes in the municipal budget.

This (IMHO), is a direct result of Welfare Entitlement, from cradle to grave, from generation to generation.

The values and amounts in the story don’t add up. $1.7 mil for a kilo of heroin? $400k a kilo for coke? The pot price is pretty questionable unless it is high end hydroponic stuff.

I hope there’s at least 1 million left in the evidence closet.
