Anyopne who thinks Albany ahs to get its drug supplied by peopel in Schedy can't be taken seriously
it's EVERYWHERE....it just depends on how comfortable they feel in certain areas as to how they 'flourish'... I would also wonder about that woman that died in jail...
whether it be due to the hospital's fault or the jails fault it really couldn't matter less
I wonder how she got here, who invited her, who knew her etc etc......the heroin kings?

Tommy apparently you have a problem with reading comprehension - nowhere does it say that major distribution rings do not exist in the City.
The assertion was that drugs came from Schdy to Albany - my response was that they get their drugs from independent sources. More simply put, Schdy is not a direct supplier of drugs to Albany.
And they both must get their drugs from elsewhere unless people are manufacturing heroin and cocaine within the City. You were wrong and are too stubborn and ignorant to admit it.
The reality is NYC and other areas are so close - there is no need to channel the drugs thru other cities in the Capital District. Troy, Albany, Cathsill, etc. can all get it right form NYC and elsewhere

Hypothetically if you were moving drugs and you took the train to move them would you rather get off the train in Schenectady or in Albany? Ever seen a drug sniffing dog in the Schenectady terminal.
Same for the bus.....

I was once on grand jury, and during a break we discussed a well publicized drug raid with the District Attorney. He seemed a little less than enthusiastic... when asked why, he said that the drug raid was good that it took drug dealers off the streets but, that the huge front page headlines would be read in NYC as an invitation to head up the thruway for some easy money. Selling drugs upstate is much more lucrative with less competition and less danger of getting shot by other drug dealers.
The police, mayor, city council want the drug raid publicized to show that they are doing a good job... and you can't blame them for that, but the publicity put drugs back on the streets 48 hours after the raid by a new set of criminals.
In the end, all you did was change the old drug dealers for new ones.

And it also creates more jobs for Corrections, Courts, and Police. That is the real value.
Had the drug raid been less publicized, the results might have been more impressive in the long term. When the criminals slowly return to an area, police can better keep up with new sources of drugs.

Yeah, the train is the only way to get drugs up here.
Your missing my point. If you did take the train or a bus you would be less likely to be caught transporting drugs if you used the Schenectady terminals rather than Albany-Rensselaers.

Nah. In Albany, they take a look on the buses, sometimes even bring dogs on board. I recall seeing numerous stories about people being busted in Albany, that were on their way to Syracuse or Rochester or where ever.
Even using the bus for legitimate purposes, you are better off getting off in Albany, and then taking the CDTA, because the layover time in Albany is about 30 minutes, and that doesn't count the time getting on and off the Thruway again, and traveling from exit 23 to exit 25.
The train is nicer, but costs twice as much. Nope, the drugs are still coming up by car.
I've never seen a bust at the bus station that yielded any more than about 500 bags of heroin, or 2000 at the very max, which is really just...nothing. It's at most, a couple of hour's supply for the Capital District.
The DEA has admitted time and again, that even at their best, they only catch less than 2% of the drugs, and less than 1% of the drugs entering The United States.

The buses stop in Albany on the way to Schenectady.
The Chinese restaurants on Central ave have buses that run to NYC for as little as $10.
The one just below Lake goes to Manhattan and then Chinatown hourly every day until 10pm.
