Do you know many drug dealers who are doing quality control inspections on their products? And if so who certifies the inspection?
Thanks!
IMO, if the dealer made it a point to say that the pills were fentanyl-containing fakes, then it's just a "Let the Buyer Beware" thing.
If he lied or otherwise misled De Niro's grandson into thinking the pills were real, then I'd say the dealer was in part responsible for the death. Unless he himself didn't know.
At some level of distribution, it should be stated that the pills are fake, IMO. It's one thing to sell drugs - but deceiving the client is another matter.
Example: my PED dealer told me that the Sustanon I just got for my
2nd Annual Summer Cycle was very "prop-heavy", causing pain at the injection site. He offered me a refund, but I was fine with it, providing it was effective/real gear.
Just because something is illegal doesn't mean we can't attempt to be moral in it.
Also, on this topic - it's a bit of a long read, but check out the portion here under the section "Death":
