Greta K. to get 10 years

I don't know, I am kinda on the fence on this one, the making and selling is pretty bad. Who knows how many young, niave girls (and guys for that matter) they could have convinced to try this stuff. There are many at the track that just don't have the experience or street smarts when they first start out, and I am sure they would have been easy targets. I believe they both are repeat offenders, if I am mistaken please correct me, but am pretty sure this isn't the first brush with the law for them.

Any predator should receive the harshest penalty....selling drugs,raping.molestations,spousal abuse....and a host of other crimes.

As long as you also include bookmaking.

Interesting thought,BTW! Back in the day I had one of those people, though I never had to worry about being a victim of a beating or the 'vig'. But that type of business is real enough.

No, you are missing the point. They are no less predators that prey on people's weaknesses than drug dealers.

It might be a "coastal" thing,but the 3 different "books' I used were pretty laid back....no bats or broken bones.

A co worker of mine was almost "de-legged" from a book last year, and this was over some Mickey Mouse $hit. (a few hundred)...We break his balls and recite the Eugene Ponticorvo scene when he walked into that joint and blasted that fat mess watching his ballgame while eating..I can't stand lame bettors who welch on thier bets...People that do things like that will be caught up to by the karma police sooner or later...

The company I work for hired this lady who was 33 and missing most of her teeth, the ones she had were rotted. We were all suspicious. She always acted crazy, like constanly bouncing around, shaking etc etc.....

She worked a couple days, got a paycheck, and then called off a couple days. She did show back up for work, and they suspected something.

She tested positive for meth. I guess that stuff rots your teeth like no tomorrow. This drug is scary on all fronts, the manufactuing of it is DANGEROUS. 2 more people who don't belong in society off the streets.

I always wondered how Greta got that 55-1 to wire the field. Now I know...
it's a real shame.

Glad they are in prison.

Not many bookmakers will take action from a 12 year old.

Someone making this drug for distribution has that exact intent.

So, it's drug dealers that sell to minors you have a problem with? The ones who only sell to people of the age of consent are OK?

That's a doozy of a broad generalization.

Screw 'em.

It's not their first offense and they were selling it. I wouldn't care if they smoked, snorted or injected their own eyeballs with it if that's all they did. But it's very cheap and a huge problem drug with kids.

There are better ways to make money.
