BOSTON, (CMC) – A Jamaican national, described by law enforcement authorities as a major marijuana trafficker, will appear in a court here on Thursday following his arrest in Philadelphia over the weekend.
Dwight Langley, 49, was taken into custody outside his house in the community of Stonehurst. Law enforcement officials said that several barrels filled with 83 pounds of marijuana with a street value of US$360,000 were seized.
They said they also confiscated just over US$8,000 in cash and drug paraphernalia.
Investigators believe Langley is a major drug trafficker with international connections, and Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood said Langley was being investigated for months.
A judge arraigned Langley on charges of violation of the Health and Safety Act for possession of marijuana, possession with intent to deliver, as well as possession of drug paraphernalia.
Bail was set at US$250,000 pending his court appearance on Thursday.
wah else dem call him
Bullshit arrest. Funny how they still taking black men to jail for selling marijuana but the white men are making $19 million per month doing the same shit in Washington and Colorado. Always the Negros that get screwed. They just don’t like to see black people with nothing. Every drug dealer need to lock shop and move to where it’s legal and capitalize on it the same way as the white man without risking his freedom.
I find your comment rather dumb! How did trafficking in marijuana become a black white issue? You are always coming up with some weird conspiracy theories.
I guess you have nothing to say about all those Jamaicans that have been killed over the years for selling marijuana? What about those killed through robbery by their fellow Jamaicans? Hundreds? Thousands?
Children, they say the darnest things……
if u have nothing nice to say don’t say anything at all. foxy is one of our veteran bloggers and assholes like u who wanna throw unnecessary insults for no good reason should stay off the site and stop trying to fit in where u can get in. foxy is a bog woman fe u little girl.

I came to the conclusion it not worth it . do the maths .SELLING DRUGS you work all around the clock minimum 70 hours a week. you cant turn off you phone when you reach home , You always affi a worry about who is gonna snitch on you .to many hands in one basket. farmer-airport/customs-whole sale- street-users.
if you put the same hours to something legal you be successful in life
