Joseph PetrocelliMore from Joseph PetrocelliSpecial UnitsStreet Corner Drug DealingIt has been argued that drug use is a victimless crime. But you’re a cop, and you know better. You’ve seen the overdosed victims, the worried looks on parents’ faces. You’ve also seen the neighborhood deterioration. You know that as drug dealers move in, citizens have a diminished feeling of safety and legitimate businesses move out. This creates an environment suitable not only for drug dealing, but also prostitution, burglaries, robberies, rapes, and murders.December 31, 2006Previous PagePage 5 of 5
