e<¢ e a hy, POPEYE = 92 of heroin but reinstated his parole anyway. Popeye had won, Was Popeye dealing, heroin? Sheila knew: HT waa there and saw him sell her- oin... Tony went to score and I was with him, Popeye was discussing oe Some dope that he had with brother O. and how much it waa going to cont ‘and then they went into another room... came back out again, Popeye left, and 0. showed Tony the dope... said ‘this is what I just bought’ and Popeye was the only other person in the room." Was it good dope? "No, it was shit." George K., whose credit card was found in the tennis shoe with the heroin, had been scoring from Vvopeye's wife, Sue, for some time. Popeye took over the heroin business when he decided that he could handle the dope and Sue could turn tricks; that way, they'd both be making money. He put Sue back on the street and, for a short period, he sold a lot of heroin. George scored from him a lot, often copping at the UPU offices and scored from Popeye at 180 and Mission, ten minutes before the bust. George didn't have enough money to cover whit he was buying and gave Popeye his credit card to hold as collateral. Popeye put it in the tennis shoe with the heroin and it was found there ten minutes later by the arresting officers. The stolen credit card charges were dropped when George would not say that it had been stolen, Popeye had marshalled the support of many sisters and brothers who did not know him well, while a lot of those who did hid grown to hate him. Sheila: "T really do have a bad opinion of him... you know, it's close to hatred... on a lot of levels, I think he should have died... but, buying into that... is like caying that's the way we should live, If we can't live together, | then we chould just wipe each other out in the fucking street." ya, i; Bet atin Ss af pas cee Pea pee Ee
