Wow, a heroin trafficker sentenced to 16 months (less 1/3 off the sentence for good behaviour) = less than a year in prison, oops I almost overlooked the tiny fine.
I wonder how many silly kids he got hooked on drugs, before he was caught?
Lets see - 11 months in jail to get straightened out, then back to the same old thing until he is caught again in about 5 more years?
