“Deputies routinely said bills in denominations of $1, $5, $10, $20, $50 and $100 were suspicious because they are typical of what [drug] dealers carry."

Doesn't leave many options for the rest of us.

(I was a drug dealer, but a licensed one without the profit potential of the unlicensed one, but for a time, it was $93 per 25 grams of Lilly's finest Cocaine)

One of the original states. Are you in a Jural Assembly? I heard there was a group of 13 that liked to travel together.

Glad I read this post as I was actually acquainted with Lawyer Steve Komie in Chicago in the late 80s and early 90s at one of the exchanges in the Loop. He probably wouldn't remember me as we were not close but you get to know who lots of people are in the trading pits!!

Very interesting article. If nearly all currency is tainted in some way by drugs then this should be thrown out every time. Perhaps bringing drug sniffing dogs into every bank and then absconding with all that cash might just stop this practice in its tracks!!

That would do it!

And be a boom to police departments everywhere.

Maybe in New York City, but the bankers up there had immunity, until now!
