Claire Powell said she'd spoken to all participants ( including Jeremy ) in her book.

She says that she has spoke to all the 'leading' participants but she doesn't say where she got the heroin comment from, just that Jeremy liked to boast about selling it.

Heroin would have been as rare as hens teeth back then. With an astronomical price.

It wasn't rare - or expensive. Coke was the expensive drug - still is, not that I'm a junkie or anything

the only drugs education I got in the 70s was my mum saying "if someone hands you a tablet that is purple and shaped like a heart don't take it"


That was it - the total of my drugs education.

I remember the purple hearts. Takes me all my time to take a paracetamol.

Hello All  , On paper perhaps nothing they don't have a bearing on the events I find law both unfair and never delivered.

Jeremy either did smuggle heroin. Which shows he had a lot of courage, was stupid and greedy.

Or he did not smuggle heroin but boasted to people he had. Which means he lied and wanted to give himself more gravitas. It also backs up Julies claim that Jeremy liked to say things that would shock people.

Or Claire Powell's book made up the claim. But as Lookout said she interviewed everyone, including Jeremy. So no need to make anything up.

Neville was licensed to grow opium. Why would Jeremy risk smuggling heroin? More likely he'd pinch a few poppies.

[Adam]

Forget about Jeremy's other pre massacre crimes, smuggling heroin would top them all.

Being caught smuggling heroin can result in 20 years to the death penalty in some countries.

It seems Jeremy may have been prepared to risk everything in his pursuit for money.
