Selling of seized dope revealed at N Y police probe
New York officials testified about a broad pattern of narcotics corruption in the city, citing narcotics division detectives who sold seized drugs and bought from peddlers. Curran said 91,000 dollars were spent in 2,000 transactions for 4.9 pounds of poor quality drugs. He noted many narcotics arrests were misdemeanors and quickly dismissed, with little impact on drug trafficking. The commission documented bribes, extortion, and ties to organized crime. Another witness described police paying informants with seized narcotics for stolen goods.
