November 3rd, 2012
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WGGB) — Ten Springfield residents are arrested after a police raid uncovers heroin and illegal handguns.
State Police teamed up with the Springfield Police Department and various federal agencies, including the FBI, to plan and execute the raid.
It started early Friday morning and ended late Friday night.
During the raid, police seized two illegal handguns, shotgun shells, $7,500 worth of heroin, and over $1,000 in cash.
The suspects range in age from 15 to 55. Several arraignments are scheduled for Monday.
Most of the arrests were made in the northern section of Springfield.






If heroin were not criminalized, there would have been no need for the weapons. You’d find heroin and a business plan and balance sheets, and the number of a good corporate lawyer.

Yes, decriminalize heroin. Do you have any other fantastic ideas? Should we decriminalize child porn and sodomy too?! Maybe you should run for office and that could be your platform. Idiot.
go back to vigeant st. neal … heroin is illegal , and most heroin dealers dont keep balance sheets , they can barely count !!!
I can not believe someone would be so ignorant as to put friggan sodomy up there with heroin and child porn… gimme a break… lol Don’t act like you never went down a guy before (yes oral is considered sodomy as well) smh….
Heroin was widely used as medicine and sold to the public. If it were legal would you suddenly buy heroin? No ? Me neither.
