Who Knows the Shadowy History of the 10th Precinct?

[Gannon]

I recently heard a story that was quite amazing...and while somewhat unbelievable, it was told with such certainty I am loathe to ignore it.


At some point in the 70s or 80s, the 10th Precinct was actually raided by Federal agents...and the whole narcotics squad and leadership were immediately arrested and the Commander later indicted for providing drugs to low-level street dealers. It was said they brought out KILOS of heroin [[and possibly cocaine) during this raid.


They were reputed to be in association with the Young Boys, Inc...and may indeed have been their 'upline' in the distribution chain! My contact can put me in touch with a few of the operators from that era, but I do not want to pursue it without having at least SOME of my facts straight.


Who knows anything about this event? I'm sure the Police Department would like to keep it quiet...I haven't had any success researching this on-line. Time to hit the library and peruse the newspaper archives.

But any hints here would save me time...and I'd love to hear stories, if ya got 'em.



Cheers!
