Monmouth County Million Dollar Drug Bust
Maryann Spoto of The Star-Ledger reported yesterday “Seven arrested in Monmouth County drug bust“.
Federal and state authorities said today they arrested seven people and dismantled an elaborate Monmouth County-based drug trafficking and money-laundering operation that each month allegedly netted $1 million and distributed more than 1,000 kilograms of cocaine.
I have driven by that house countless times. I always admired it and often wondered “what job/business/inheritance the family had”. Well now I know……
Perhaps I should not be surprised but it is kind of shocking and way too close to home.
It’s funny that people who commit crime rarely think they’ll get caught. Otherwise, why would they continue to do it, knowing the consequences. I would always be thinking that today is my last day of freedom. Thanks for the post.

I am not condoning what they do, but you think they would quite dealing when they reached a certain amount of money. Like for example Frank Lucas had lots of money and could have gotten out easily and started a legitimate business with the money. I guess they are stupid to even start though.
I think they should try to find bigger bosses and drug canals in the root, not just “street people” who are the last in the chain of drug crimes.
