[WA] Tacoma police arrest 5, seize 10 kilograms of heroin

Tacoma police arrest 5, seize 10 kilograms of heroin
October 22, 2010 - thenewstribune.com

Tacoma police arrested five people and seized more than 10 kilograms of suspected black-tar heroin Wednesday night as part of a drug investigation.

Investigators believe the five were part of a larger organization that has been dealing heroin in the Tacoma area on behalf of a Mexican drug cartel, police spokesman Mark Fulghum said.

The investigation into the organization started with an undercover drug buy and quickly evolved, Fulghum said.

After the initial buy, the investigation led undercover drug officers to a home near 140th Street East and Canyon Road. They got a warrant to search the home and knocked on the door Wednesday night, Fulghum said.

“They were confronted by a man armed with a shotgun,” he said. “His role was to guard the home and its contents.”

The man put down the shotgun and was taken into custody after a short standoff, Fulghum said.

Inside the home, investigators found more than 10 kilos of suspected heroin, two shotguns, a handgun and cash. The drugs were valued at $800,000, Fulghum said.

Investigators stopped a van seen leaving the home and said one of the department’s drug-sniffing dogs found some drugs inside the van. The dog also found a bundle that had been dropped along the roadway, Fulghum said.

The five people were arrested at the home and in the area. They could face federal charges stemming from the investigation, he said.

Thats a pretty retarded thing to say.  Poppy pods carry as bad or even worse withdrawal than heroin.  I've never done heroin but plenty of people who have had said that poppy pod withdrawal is worse.

I am tired of this bullshit.  Heroin should be legal.

As much as I'd want it to be legal (just like all drugs should be) I can see why its not.  Heroin destroys peoples lives very quick and easily.  Nobody is immune to its addiction no matter how much will power they think they have.  If I could get cheap pure heroin from the corner pharmacy I'd be shooting up all day everyday and either die or just be a worthless bum with no goals.

As much as I agree with heroin being addictive, the problem is throwing people in jail for possession or use does not solve a single fucking problem.  They need treatment not jail.  That's why making heroin or any other drug illegal is just plain wrong.

>Nobody is immune to its addiction no matter how much will power they think they have.<

Actually, most people who use heroin do not become dependent on it, according to government figures.

>If I could get cheap pure heroin from the corner pharmacy I'd be shooting up all day everyday and either die or just be a worthless bum with no goals.<

Meaning no disrespect, but sounds as if there are other issues going on with you that should be looked at besides heroin.


As I see it drug addiction only becomes a problem if you run out of drugs or run out of money. Otherwise it is not a major issue, especially with heroin. With illegal heroin, an addicts thoughts becomes consumed with how to get it, where to get it, how to pay for it. With legal heroin (not that black tar crap, but heroin) those are not concerns. The cost obviously goes way down, one could satisfy a $200/day habit for a few bucks. It would be pure, so you can calculate an accurate dose avoiding overdose, and eliminate dirty deadly adulterants. One would have access to clean needles and avoid HIV/AIDS and other diseases. You could work, play, and live your life as an addict (or recreational user) without any major consequence. And when you are ready to quit, you could go to a doctor and be treated as a patient with a medical problem, instead of a jail and treated as a criminal.

Well #1 I'm not saying everyone will become dependant I'm saying it doesnt matter what kind of person you are you are playing with fire if you decide to use heroin or any opiates for that matter.  Out of all the drugs I've tried opiates grabbed ahold of me faster than any of them and was dependant within weeks. Even smoking crack was easy to stop compared to opiates.  and #2 what can I say I'm an opiate addict I'm only being honest, if I didnt get into trouble for using them and it was legal and I could get it everyday with no hassle Id more than likely do it.  Your right tho I do have some underlying issues I'm depressed, full of anxiety and angry on a regular basis and I cant figure out why and being opiated is the only time I ever felt at peace with myself and life.
