LSP just messed up a lot of people's weekends.

quote:

According to LSP, a trooper pulled over a Chevrolet Sonic on I-12 east of I-55 shortly after 9 a.m. Friday for a traffic violation. While conducting the traffic stop, the investigating trooper became suspicious of suspect criminal activity and requested a warrant to search the vehicle.


quote:

Troopers said they searched the vehicle and found 13 kilos of cocaine with an estimated street value of $390,000 concealed in a "secret" compartment within the vehicle.


$30k a kilo....really.

nice inflation of prices.

After marijuana is legalized, bringing this drug back to market would destroy the crack and meth epidemic.
While I hate cocaine and think it's a shitty drug, there is no arguing that it is much safer and easier to ween people off of than meth and Crack. (which some will say is cocaine, but it's cocaine in the sense that gasoline and plastic are the same thing)

13 kilos is such an odd number. I bet the LSP is selling off about 7 kilos right about now.

They always do that shite. They will break on ounce into est cost of 28 grams bought by the gram(60-80) to get the highest POSSIBLE street price to nail your arse.
So an ounce may cost you 800-1200 but you can double that if you sold by the gram at 80.


SO i heard one time in college.


quote:

They figure these prices based on the street price of the lowest unit of distribution.

A kilo is 1,000 grams, a gram goes for around $30 on the market. A thousand times 30 is $30,000. They do the same thing with weed.



See Napoleon heard about this too. But yea your gram is about half of a 'good deal' and 40% of a street deal. Doing the math they really didn't jack it up too bad. probably went with per key cost like somebody said. B/C a key can get you 60k on the street.

like 2002-2004



Rules of drug price dick measuring. DO NOT DO IT.

There's always going to be someone with a sweet arse deal that some other guy in the same town ain't getting.

There was a retarded arse 'connected' white-looking mexican dude in BR selling 8s for $80 in 06-07. Brag worthy? Yes. Did it last? frick no. He's in prison.
