'Twilight' Connection in Big Heroin Bust

Posted Nov 23rd 2009 1:35PM by TMZ Staff

Here's the kind of "Twilight" merchandise you really don't want your kids getting their hands on -- baggies of heroin with a cartoon of Rob Pattinson's face printed on them.

'Twilight' Connection in Big Heroin Bust

DEA Special Agent Erin McKenzie-Mulvey tells us the heroin baggies with "Twilight" characters were seized recently in West Hempstead, Long Island. The "Twilight"-themed baggies have been gaining popularity over the last couple of months.

New York Special Agent in Charge John Gilbride tells TMZ a dime bag of heroin in New York is cheaper than a six pack of beer.

7. Where is John Gilbride buying his beer? A "Dime Bag" costs $10; that's why its called a "Dime Bag."

14. So illegal drugs are cheaper than beer. That is ridiculous! What has been the point of all the billions spent on the War on Drugs if I can get heroin for less than $10?? I don't care about the "Twlight" connection. That is just good marketing by the drug dealers. I just hate to think about all the tax dollars apparently wasted. While I didn't, and don't, expect illegal drugs to just disappear, I would have expected more from our government's efforts than heroin for less than $10 a pop.
