So the other day the Worcester Police shared this story about 2 drug dealers they arrested, on their Facebook page:
Now, whenever the police share a story like this there are always two types of commenters. The overwhelming majority are the people who say, “great work WPD.” But then there are the small faction of dooshnozzles who chime in with “Free my boy.” These people are almost exclusively 15 year old hardos who think they’re keeping it real.
But with this particular story, it set off a firestorm of supportive comments, because apparently one of these two guys is very well liked – Rashad Minor. We’ll ignore the fact that he’s been arrested for this before, has called Turtleboy Sports a racist blog several times and had to be blocked on our Facebook page, AND is Brenda Jenkins niece. We will forget we know all those things and attempt to look at this objectively. Let’s see if any of the Facebook lawyers can explain to us why this arrest is a miscarriage of justice….
First of all Richie, welcome to the Internet – where everyone is guilty until proven innocent. And even after being proven innocent, you’re still guilty. Luckily for your buddy, Internet court isn’t real court and he still has the presumption of innocence in the courtroom. But please, tell me how you would handle this case if you were his lawyer. He had cocaine, baggies, and cash. That’s like the starter kit for anyone looking into selling drugs. Oh yea, and he consented to the search. If you could possibly explain to me how he’s gonna explain that one in court, we’re all ears.
That’s a good point Jeffrey. If you’re not born with this magical silver spoon in your mouth you have no choice but to deal drugs. That’s it. It’s not like we live in America and there’s any sort of economic opportunity out there. It’s either sell Tony Ya-yo or die from hunger. There are no other options.
Ah yes, white privilege. Because there is literally nothing on earth that can’t be blamed on white privilege.
Wait……what? Ummmmmm….why would anyone be selling dick on Main Street? Is that like, a hot commodity right now? Are there junkies wandering around looking to score some dick?
Hold on. Did Heidi just admit that she’s a retired drug dealer? On the Worcester Police Department’s Facebook page? Might wanna keep that one to yourself girl. Just a thought.
What’s the difference between adderall and cocaine? I dunno, the fact that one of them is an orange pill that gets the crazy kids to read a book, and the other one is what rock stars put in their nose when they don’t wanna feel pain? Good point though. They’re basically the same exact thing.
And it wouldn’t be a party if our girl WANDA didn’t show up with a fist full of hot takes!! Luckily she’s gotten her keyboard fixed and has figured out she can use the period button as she sees fit:
Oh sweet baby Jesus. Hey WANDA, you might wanna read what happened again. They had a search warrant for his house but he wasn’t home. But they obviously know what car he drives and the license plate. So they just happened to be driving around one of the scummiest parts of town (because police like to patrol the places where crime happens the most), and they noticed the exact same car with the exact same license plate as the one they were looking for. And wouldn’t ya know – there’s coke lying right in plain view and your boy is inside grabbing some food. But please, tell me more about how the cops were going after him because he is a minority in a minority owned restaurant. The race card never fails in times like these.
I realize that cocaine is not the drug that’s killing people left and right in Massachusetts right now. But it’s still not a good drug. My problem with drug dealers has always been that they don’t mind profiting off of it, but they’d never take it themselves. To me that’s gutless and cheap. So yes, if you know anyone who has died from drug addiction, and at this point we all know someone, then you understand that the dealer is ten times the asshole that the dope fiend is.
Oh look, WANDA watched a documentary on the Bloods and Crips. She’s an expert on everything now.
Most people don’t acknowledge that white privilege is real, because it’s not real. It’s something losers like RBG made up in a vain attempt to explain their own failures and shortcomings. If white privilege were a real thing then Colrain wouldn’t be a complete shithole.
As soon as you find yourself uttering the phrase, “Only God can judge” you’re admitting that you’ve lost the argument. Apparently the only ones who can judge two guys arrested for illegal firearms possession and drug dealing (subsequent offenses nonetheless) are, a) God, and b) Facebook friends. Everyone else must reserve judgement. It’s a rule.
Yea, who are we as private citizens to judge another human being’s guilt or innocence? It’s not like our entire judicial system is based off of the concept of 12 strangers drawing a conclusion as to a defendant’s guilt based on presented evidence. Oh yea, and “judges” have no right to do what they do either. They don’t even know the guys!!!
Oh look, Heidi found a link on the Google machine. Everyone click on it!! Her friend’s are obviously innocent because she found something on the Internet!! And everything on the Internet is always 100% correct. Always.
Another strong point. Can’t believe I never thought of that. If you could please direct me to the government agent these two purchased their cocaine and unregistered handguns off of, we will arrest the REAL criminals!!
Stop the fight!!! April Marlborough knows these guys. Therefore they can’t possibly be guilty!! Case closed your honor!!
Well first of all April, we didn’t read it in the paper. We read it in the police logs.
Secondly, I’m not sure if you understand how bail works. Anyone can be out on the streets the next day if they’ve got some cash lying around.
Thirdly, being perfect is not a prerequisite to judge others. You’re right, no one is perfect. But some people’s imperfections are more problematic than other’s. For instance, Turtleboy always leaves the toilet seat up. Mrs. Turtleboy hates this. But failing to put the toilet seat down is not an arrestable offense. Selling cocaine on the other hand is. See the difference?
Another smoking hot take!! When people do good things for the community it means they can’t possibly have committed a crime. For instance, Aaron Hernandez gave $50,000 to the Myra Kraft foundation and everyone knows that guy would never hurt a fly!!
So many hot takes in one Facebook thread!!! The Worcester Police clearly had two options – solve every unsolved murder that’s gone cold or get drugs off the street. It was literally one or the other. Not enough time or resources for both.
Yea, who hasn’t been there before? We all go through a phase in life where we become coke dealers to support our families. The fact that you’ve known someone your whole life only strengthens that argument.
Yes they are innocent until proven guilty. But the thing is, more than likely your boys are gonna take a plea deal. Because they got caught red handed and they’ll get a much better deal if they just admit that they did it. Oh yea, and I just looked in the mirror – turns out your friends are still guilty. I need shave though, so thanks for sending me in that direction.
Shocking that commentary like this would come form our girl April:
Oh snap!!
I love you Old Balls.
Oh yea, and just in case anyone thought that Rashad had learned anything from this whole ordeal…
Yup, you have nothing to be disappointed in yourself about. It’s not like you got arrested selling cocaine. Again. We all get arrested for coke dealing, do a little stint in the House of Corrections, get out, become a leader in the community, and then go right back to selling coke. It’s a part of life. Nothing to be disappointed about. Sounds like he’s learned his lesson.
Anyway, Turtleboy just couldn’t believe the litany of excuses we read on that Facebook thread. It was almost like the drug dealers were the victims. People think drug dealing is some sort of victimless crime. It’s not. It’s against the law because drugs kill people and they pray on the weak. It’s not like with gambling either. In gambling you can win or lose. With drugs you can only lose. Nothing good has ever come from cocaine. Just look at the 1980’s. Worse cultural decade ever and everyone was high on cocaine. Once you find a friend of your’s dead in his bedroom after choking on his own vomit from a drug overdose, then you can come and talk to Turtleboy about the nobility of drug dealers.

These poor entrepreneurs! How racist can the system become? It’s funny that it’s now racist to arrest and/or investigate minority drug dealers. What does race have to do with it??? A drug dealer is a drug dealer…race is completely irrelevant!!! This is ridiculous that idiots are speaking our to defend these two dirt balls!! And even funnier that an outstanding citizen like April Marlborough is vouching for one of these fools! Even better that the Massachusetts legislators believed because a disproportionate number of black men are being convicted of Cocaine related offenses, they thought it was appropriate to reduce the sentences. Makes perfect sense! I have a fresh and novel idea: Don’t sell Cocaine, you won’t be arrested by “racist” cops; Don’t get arrested, you won’t be convicted by “racist” judges or juries; Don’t get convicted of selling Cocaine, you won’t become a “victim” of the “racist system”!!! Pretty straightforward.
Rocahmbeau is 100% correct. But why let facts get in the way when you want to blame the government for drug pushers and junkies. Lets be crystal clear, these dirtbags have destroyed once were good neighborhoods in the City. And Mayor Petty and other apologists have watched idly by.
Um. Not to pick a side. However it’s well known most the heroin is coming from Afghanistan same place we are trying to control now. Obviously the government lets it in for favors over seas. If you don’t believe that then your journalism and investigation skills need some improving. It’s obvious there are private owned jails and they want people in there, to fill them you go after the weak …. Wake up
Most of the heroin that comes into the US is actually from Mexico. Afghanistan supplies mostly Asia and Europe with heroin. Those facts speak volumes regarding your own investigation skills, *obviously*.
Maybe someone can point me in the right direction to get this “white privilege” everyone keeps talking about . I’m white, I have a job, but still broke ? Do I still qualify ? if so ,where do I pick up my check ?!
FYI: Cocaine kills! The stated cause of death is related to the cardiovascular system (heart attack or stroke).
The victims of a drug overdose are unlike other victims of crime as they choose to be a victim by making their purchase. That, however, does not make it okay. Do the drug dealers stop selling their supply when they hear of the death? Nope. That is why, in my opinion, they are murderers.
The comparison of Adderall and coke, well it is said that it is poor man’s coke. The difference, it is legal, doctors are trusting those given it to be responsible and not to sell it. But, that only happens in an ideal world. If a person is given Adderall and gets an euphoria from it that means the ADHD diagnosis is inaccurate. People play the system and the innocents are judged.
TB Never did I think tears would roll down my cheeks as I finished reading. No one is exempt. Drugs do not discriminate. Every walk of life is involved.
Heidi seems classy. The kind if girl who expects you to put on the good sweat pants when you go to olive garden. You know the ones, the “going out” sweat pants.
Eric, they are both the same
I love how if you search for pretty much any of these people defending the arrested (suspected) drug dealers, they’ve also been arrested before. Oh and news flash people, that shouldn’t be considered NORMAL.
Would you rather be a drug dealer or MOSAIC employee?
Autumn, aren’t u one to talk when u used to come sit for hours at 3GS tossing back a case of Miller lite then sucking ur ex’s dick in the back parking lot before drunk driving home. Funny how ur quick to judge EVERYONE else but can NEVER seem to fix the one in the mirror. How about u mention that ur so against drug dealers until ur getting laid by one good enough to give the title of ur car 2. Bahaha. What a great voice of reason coming from a total hypocrite. I almost couldn’t figure out why u say ur own mom hates u. Ur a funny one. n to think I actually tried getting u to come work out with me. Lol ur so against drug dealing yet can throw back a case of beer n jump in the drivers seat. Ya, I can imagine how u must lower ur intelligence to instigate something u know nothing about. Bravo. Ur such a clown show. But u have a fan club finally so congrats on that.
And I wasn’t even going to comment on this but since I saw you mention my name….. Hi. Here I am.
Class.
^ lady your a mother how can you teach your kids selling drugs is ok? To the Mothers in support of this. Nice people GOOD people dont sell drugs to other peoples kids. Do you think this man discriminates who he’s selling to? After all hes trying to feed his own kids so guess what? He doesn’t give an f about yours!!! He is a father selling drugs to the youth getting someonelses baby hooked on this shit. That’s a nice caring guy huh?
These POS rats ruined what was once a hard working Hamilton Street. Hope they rot behind the wall for a long time.
Agreed. My family lived there 60 years and now people get pistol whipped for sneakers and 15 year olds shoot people in the head. Im gone from the neighborhood now but it used to be so great.
They won’t.
The truth about drug traffickers is the high level of gun violence that goes with trade. Almost all gun violence/murders in Worcester are a direct result of a drug robbery or gang associated. Our gangs in Worcester are really only organized drug dealers. There’s no more in just being a van banging idiot. They all wanna be scarface. April Marlborough (the main commented) herself was involved in a drug robbery murder in Worcester and convicted of manslaughter. This is the evil that haunts Worcester. The amount of people involved in the drug trade at some level is astounding. good job WPD thanks for getting these scumbags off the street…and pissing off all these other scumbags doing it.
Lol at you condemning drug dealers and then praising the police. You do realize that the cops are the biggest drug dealers in the city, right?
You’re a moron
You’re a naif
If they are just trying to support their familys why do they all have 3k worth of rims and tires and a gangster car?? If I was struggling to support my family I would think I would own a 10 year old Hyundai rolling on some factory 14 inch steel rims
I guess if you tell yourself enough times its to support a family and not just a lazy ass who cant and wont get a real job you start to believe your own bullshit
None of them judge anyone every…But they believe all whites have white privilege… Guess its not judging when its against whitey
The sense of entitlement for these worthless parasites is just astounding. If they put in half the effort to be contributing members of society as the do thugs, they might actually flourish. Yeah right……
Maybe these poor neighborhoods could be decent places to live if these idiots actually did start to judge the actions of their friends, families, and neighbors…
First, the people who live in those neighborhoods would have to be made to feel like the system was actually looking out for them. Second, the people who live in those neighborhoods would have to actually own the property there’s instead of paying rent to somebody’s heir over on the west side. But yeah, once those things start happening, then yes, you’re right.
Take it easy, Komrade.
Yeah, because encouraging the ownership of real estate is SO communist smdh
Great job Turtleboy, I love reading ur articles. U always do ur homework first and then break the news to the good people of Worcester Co.
Keep up the great job that u do.
Patrick.
As Rick James said, cocaine is a hell of a drug.
Great closing to this article! Wow, if that last sentence doesn’t make people sit back and really think, nothing will. Drug dealers are murderers. Lazy SOB that don’t want to work legit jobs and pay taxes. Rather live off the system that they don’t pay into.
If they were smart, they’d file what they brought in from the street. IRS does not care where it comes from.
Yeah but cocaine is awesome though.
