    nycemt728, please do not take comments personal.

    I am speaking from experince as a Det. working in the Bronx for a number of years.

    Infact I would like to share one of many experinces that I had in the Bronx court system.

    I was in narcotics working a buy and bust operation. An undercover PO (UC) walks in to the lobby of a building on Walton Ave. The UC approaches a subject and purchases one glassine of heroin with a marked $10.00 bill. The UC then leaves the building and walks around the corner to his car. He then gives the field team a description of the subject. All this time another UC was standing across the street from the building making sure nobody had walked out of the building. The team then moves in and apprehends the subject in the lobby. Found on the subject at time of arrest, was one additonial matching glassine of herion and the pre recorded buy money ($10.00). The subject is then brought outside, at which time the UC does a drive buy and confirms that this is the individual that sold him the heroin. As a narc cop, you say to yourself , this is a great case. We recovered the cash and matching stash, ID was made within 5 minutes. One week later the case goes to the Grand Jury, now remember the grand jury is not seated to convist or not to convict. They are seated to determine if there is enough evidence for this case to proceed further with an indictment. Myself and UC testified as to what happened that day. The subject also did testify, stating that he also walked into the building to purchase one glassine from an unknown indivdual. He had given this individual a twenty dollar bill and in return he got a ten dollar bill as change. That ten dollar bill of course, being the recorded buy money. The grand jury believed this poor drug dealer and would not give take into consideration the testimony of a sworn undercover P.O.. They did not indict him and he walked. The case died there and did not even go to trial.
