An autopsy has revealed that a man found dead in a suitcase in a suburban park was a drug "mule" who had 50 packets of heroin in his body and probably died when one or two of them broke open. Damn it! The rule is double bag your smack, man!
The remaining heroin inside would have been worth an estimated $100,000 on the streets. The man, estimated to be 50 to 60 years old, had not been identified, but was very dead. Investigators aren't sure who put him in the suitcase found last Thursday in Tibbetts Brook Park north of New York City. But it probably wasn't the drug dealers who were expecting the man's shipment, because they likely would have cut his body open for the drugs.
"We've seen that on occasions in the past...How he got to the park with the drugs still inside him is still a piece of the puzzle," said the police. Detectives theorized that other mules, not wanting the dealers to cut open the corpse, bought the suitcase and dumped the body before the dealers came to collect the drugs. The body was discovered when a parks worker went to remove the abandoned black canvas suitcase near the park's entrance and the victim's leg popped out.
