Cocaine is a hell of a drug


Pig meat helps settle bill for crack cocaine
Associated Press

SYRACUSE, New York — It was a simpler sort of drug trade.

Syracuse police say a 45-year-old man offered a slaughtered pig as partial payment for a bag of crack cocaine.

They say two men were spotted making the deal on a street corner just before 8 p.m. Thursday.

Angelo Colon of Fulton was arrested on a misdemeanor drug possession charge and 42-year-old Omar Veliz faces a felony drug sale charge.

Police say Colon paid half a pig and $10 for a $50 bag of crack. Veliz told police the pig was for a celebration for a relative being released from jail.

While officers were arresting the suspects, someone took the pig.

Police don't know if the men have lawyers.

This crack deal was doomed since jump street. Seriously, what kind of crack dealer accepts pig meat as payment? There's only two ways to score crack, cash and sexual favors. The second you start accepting anything else you open youself up to a lot of bartering scenarios that can get real messy and get you busted. Worst crack deal ever.
