The Vancouver man who opened a store selling heroin, meth, cocaine, and MDMA was arrested less than 24 hours after launching the business.

Jerry Martin opened The Drugs Store, a mobile shop, in the Downtown Eastside Wednesday, a neighbourhood that’s been ravaged by the overdose epidemic. He said he wanted to give people a safe supply of drugs that have been tested to ensure they didn’t contain fentanyl.

quote:

Police said they started gathering evidence “after the suspect started selling cocaine, crack, methamphetamine, and heroin out of a mobile trailer parked near Main and Cordova streets.”




quote:

The store, which was parked next to a police van, had bright yellow sandwich boards featuring a price list for all the drugs, which ranged from $10 for a point (one-tenth of a gram) of meth to $250 for 2.5 grams of crack. Martin, who wore a stab-proof vest as he sold drugs from behind a plexiglas window inside the shop, said he wanted to stay close to street prices.

Glad they arrested him. Those crack prices are criminal.

Most likely safer than street dealers.

This guy deserves an award for being a hero, not to be arrested.

If we're going to start arresting all the drug dealers, big pharma will be out of business soon.

What's the problem? Did he not get a license?

I mean this is how you curb the violence.


You drive the dirty, smelly, murdery Street hoods out of business and let friendly, ethical crack dealers take their place.


Man was running a business and providing reliable product. I applaud him
