Just Look for the DEA Label

When Newark, New Jersey police, along with agents of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) raided a Newark home-turned heroin factory in the wee hours of July 31, the DEA Agents especially were surprised to find the heroin neatly packaged in glassine envelopes displaying the official DEA emblem.

"As the saying goes 'imitation is the best form of flattery,'" said New Jersey DEA official Gerard P. McAleer in a press release, "however, we are not flattered by traffickers duplicating our agency seal on their poison."

Along with one kilogram of heroin – not really endorsed by the DEA – agents seized drug making paraphernalia, guns, ammunition, computers and of course, lots of cash in the raid.
