So... what usually happens when the above scenario occurs? Assuming you live.

You can't sue your "pharmacy", and I don't see many consumers having more than one dealer, so do you just stop calling?

If you survive the OD? Chances are your staff is confiscated by the police and you had better hope you didn't buy a large amount, otherwise you're surely getting hit with a charge for intent to distribute. If you OD, live, and still have your drugs, depending on the amount, you either take a smaller dosage and continue to enjoy yourself or you cut it and sell it to recoup that money that you're likely just going to spend on more heroin.

Most of the time, you just die and that is the end of it. Although, depending on your drug dealer, they are likely to let you know if the shit is that good or not before hand. They care if you OD and die, if for no other reason than to lose a customer.

I've read that when a bunch of OD cases start popping up in ERs, that's usually a sign that there's been a change in supplier.

Usually via the methods dank referred to, although in this case the gun being used to establish distribution rights.

Twas thinking more along the lines of, how does one communicate their dissatisfaction with the product to their dealer.

Typically, drug users aren't particularly dissatisfied with a drug when it is much stronger than anticipated, almost always a sign of a better quality product. So, they might notify their drug dealer to warn them when the shit is stronger, but it is likely they will keep their mouth shut or suffer a raise in price / drop in quality. If the drug dealer was unaware that it was not as cut down, they could stretch it more, by cutting it down further and you get the same old shit for the same price, rather than better shit for the same price.

I feel so sorry for his 5 children who will now find out every tiny detail of their daddy's secret life with heroin and a prostitute.

"Forrest will be remembered above all as a loving husband and father." Why do I think not.

How about his wife? How humiliating... D:

Traditionally that is done with a gun.

That's the one I was thinking of...

You, sir, know your drug deals.

""Forrest will be remembered above all as a loving husband and father. More than anything else he enjoyed spending time with his family at home and on his boat," according to a January obituary that his family wrote for the Sentinel. "

Allow me to explain. His family has yet to process what happened.

DABDA is the acronym for the process of a traumatic event.

Denial is the first stage. His family is still in denial. They still remember him as they thought he was before this news hit about his secret life.

The next stage: Anger, is when they will show anger at his deception, secret life, seeing prostitutes, drug use, callous disregard for family members, his children.

Then again not everyone grieves the same way so who knows if they will ever outwardly display or talk about this anger or if they will just quietly feel so internally only.

I'm not a psychologist but I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn express last night plowing hookers and consuming street drugs either. So there's that...;)

All that money and the best thing he can think to do with his free time is to hire some shady hooker to shoot him up with heroin.

Why was the other thread closed? The article makes the death sound like it was a hit, someone wanted him dead. She is somehow connected to another murder.

Was he one of the people at Google working on the point to point email encryption?

Just asking....

I am going to go out on a limb here and say it isn't "just as easy" to OD on alcohol as it is on heroin. The average street heroin is like 10% pure, at best. Now, if you somehow got a hold of something that was 20% pure and didn't know it was as strong, your normal dose would be double without you knowing it. Not exactly something that happens with alcohol. Even if you drank moonshine rather than your normal beer, you're likely to vomit before you hit the point of death.
He's most likely part of the 1%. With that kind of money, you can afford heroin that is <1% impurities. ;)



"Hayes' co-workers and friends described him as intelligent, a family man with a great sense of humor with a penchant for impulse buys."
"Family man" doing hookers and heroine... That is indeed, no lie, your typical "family man".
Or else "impulse buys" is just a very wide-reaching category.

This is an extreme case, obviously, but I think it's silly to put yourself in a position where you may have to depend on a prostitute's concern for your welfare.

No kidding. She's gonna raid your drug cabinet and then haul ass. I doubt she'd even call 911 on the way.

I don't even think pure heroin is "pure" heroin. It is basically the result of purifying opium, and that is likely to never be less than 1%, if you're lucky. And even the, you need to get it directly from the supplier, as anywhere down the chain, it will be cut.

That idiot deserved to die for his selfishness and stupidity. I have zero sympathy for him. All his money or social status won't help him now where he is going now..lol!

haha must have been some killer gear!!! (pun)

but yeah he fucked up... always test with small shot first dummy, that's rule number one of being an old junkie!!!!



i learned the hard way... 1 bag (10 bucks) (.1 gram) killed me once, i had time to rinse out the syringe (draw up clean water and squirt it back out) sit it down...... my buddy asked if i was okay because i looked WAY fucked up... thats the last moment i remember as the rush came in......

woke up on his grandmothers kitchen linoleum floor with an EMT and firemen by my side, shot of naloxone brought me right back..

the heroin was SO STRONG, that in 4 hours, when the naloxone's half life was up (started wearing off) i was nodding out AGAIN!!!

i escaped the hospital in a gown, high as a kite!


i used to a bad bad man.

I just realized heroine et al. is in a bunch of "legal" drugs... If he's 1%, why not go straight to the pharmaceuticals.

Morphine (the opiate in heroin) is "legal" in the sense that is is available for use. And, it is likely much safer (especially if you're getting synthetic morphine) than a bag of smack from some hooker. It is harder, and therefore more expensive, to obtain morphine for a drug habit than it is to get heroin though.

If he was interesting in a heroine, he could easily just read about Joan of Arc.

Would she be charged if this were some ordinary John on the street and not a Google exec.?
