It probably will only be a dent but it's something.

 

It's a start, but there are thousands and thousands of crackheads out there still !

 

And replacements arriving daily.

 

At least they got some. I’m sure they’re working on more. I also hope they get a long sentence too.

 

Hopefully this is the start of LE finally cracking down on these lowlifes...

 

They are like cock roaches coming out of the wood work , step on one but they keep comming

 

That’s great news. YAY!!!!! I am glad some of them were on the West Coast because they will OH SO GET THE BOOK thrown at them and they will have the stiffest of fines and be in jail for a very long time!!!!! YAY!!!!

 

100 dollar fine, a week of probation and a check to help them recover?

 

After the bust do the police sell the found c.c.
