Nerdiest. Accused meth kingpin. Ever.
John Ingold reports from our new crime blog, The Rap Sheet:
While researching a story about how federal prosecutors handle marijuana crimes, I came across a civil forfeiture case involving perhaps the geekiest accused methamphetamine boss ever.
It seems that the alleged dealer — a Commerce City man named Aaron Castro — had a rather unusual spending habit. According to federal prosecutors’ complaint, Castro dropped thousands of dollars in meth proceeds on … comic books.
