NYPD has shut down a
NYPD has shut down a couple of night clubs in one of our neighborhoods. The problem: consistent, unconcealed use and sale of Ecstasy. You might also want to read about the break-up of a Coney Island drug ring which sounds like it had shades of New Jack City: "undercover detectives made 81 buys of crack and powder cocaine. They penetrated the inner ring of the drug gang that operated at Ocean Towers, and then identified and bought illegal narcotics from 29 key people. They estimated that the group sold about $1,200,000 of crack and cocaine a year. They also bought five illegal firearms. Most of the buys were captured on video."
