60 - 80mg oxy x $80 ea. = $4800
90- 10mg Lortab x $30 ea. = $2700
90- 250mg Soma x $20 ea. = $1800
30- 2mg Xanax x $10 ea. = $300
Ummm no lol. Nobody is paying $30 for a Lortab 10. Not even close. Not $20 for a fricking Soma either

Let me redo your math for you...
You are right on the oxyc...4800 total.
Lortabs were 5 bucks a pop back then.
450 bucks total.
Somas were damn near giveaways but we can go 3...270 bucks total.
Xan bars were also 5 (again, in that year)...150 bucks.
So let's round it to $5700.

My main point with my post from last night...
The ONLY reason those people were there were for the oxys...the addicts and the dealers. A doctor would be under much heat for the amount of oxys to begin with. Why bother with the other two then?
I've taken all 3 at once (long ago). The soma helped the buzz much more than the xan bar.

I agree nobody is paying those prices today in 2020. Just curious, did you ever buy and/or sell opioid pain medication on the street in the mid 90's early 2000's ? During this time frame drug addicts were paying stupid money to crush up and shoot dilaudid, vicodin, norco, lortab, hydrocodone, etc.. People who used intravenously were paying those prices because the pills easier to score than heroin. If you got busted with pills it was no big deal, if caught with heroin you were Fk'd. I nearly OD'd as I'm speaking from personal experience regarding actual drug use and street costs.

They weren’t back then either. The prices have only gone up since then because they are extremely hard to come by. Lortabs were all over the place back then. The only reason Oxy’s were so high is because of the potency and how new it was.

norco, lortab, hydrocodone, etc.
These are all the same shite. I stopped reading here

Ludes had just gone out by then so maybe some of those prices are believable in certain areas.

Norco and lortab and hydrocodone are one in the same. Percocet was ocycodone.
I knew a guy who was addicted to dilaudid, but that was rarely available.

They were done in the mid 80’s. Maybe surplus last a couple more years but this was in the late nineties in the documentary. Nobody paid anything close to those prices except Oxy

If you read the thread on the Movie Board, the guy who knows Daniel said that Jeffrey never gave a good reason and changed his story. He was 15. Most likely was for neighborhood clout or gang initiation.
Yeah. The only thing I could think of was he had to do dirt to prove himself.
But the whole time I had to tell myself he was 15 when he did it. Can you imagine? That's still too close to being a kid. Then he said when he was being taken to jail that was the furthest he ever been. I am not really empathizing with him, but just thinking about how he came up.
He said when he was 11 he threw his mom's crack and pipe out and she taught him a lesson by having some people hold him up and put his hand on top of a lighted stove..
Between living in that environment and by the age of 15 never have been anywhere further than several blocks from your house.. If you are born in that environment you are pretty much fricked from day 1.

Just finished watching it. The world needs more people like Dan. Very well done documentary from start to finish. Hope this gets the eyeballs it deserves.

Yes. It also shows you that you can't depend on government. If you want something done the right way you have to fight to get it done.
When you dealing with the government everything gets passed on.
And now that I think about it.. At the end, did the DEA take credit for getting the doctor shut down? They were supposedly investigating before he got involved.. And it took him getting involved and basically finding out what avenues he had to take to get it done before DEA was even able to do anything. The DEA pretty much just did the "official" work.

Yeah, but the DEA tried to prosecute and kept getting turned down by the US Attorney. They just didn’t want to prosecute doctors. It’s fricked up, but not all on the DEA.

I gotcha. I really need to watch it again because there are parts of it I missed because I was watching it while doing something else. So the DEA had its hands tied...

Watching now

I binge watched it this past weekend. Great documentary.

It was actually the medical board that started the dominoes falling. The FBI and DEA had under cover investigations going on supposedly.

I don't know who invented crack, but I think it became more popular and obtainable when the US put stronger laws on cocaine. In order to get around those laws the cartels started making crack because once you add the baking soda it became its own substance that contained cocaine.
The cartels never shipped crack, even after it took off. They always smuggled pure or cut cocaine and crack was made here
The CIA was a big part of the crack epidemic
They are actually the biggest drug cartel in the world
They imported opium from SE Asia during the Vietnam war and from Afghanistan when they were fighting the Russians , imported cocaine from S America and opium is the reason we still have troops in Afghanistan

Aint no one paid that much for Soma, they were almost free.
Lortab was at most a dollar a mg but usually .50c.
So $5.

Well... crack is VERY similar in form to the form of coke after the farmers process it before it was in its final form. Pasta Basilica or basic paste is damn near free base.
