Lehigh search yields drugs, gun, $20,000
A Lehigh County man has been charged with possession of heroin.
According to the affidavit of probable cause filed by Detective Michael Mish of the Lehigh County District Attorney’s Office:
Mish served a search warrant at a home on Jefferson Court, New Tripoli, where Alberto Rivera-Rosario, 25, and Rachel Betz lived.
Police found a Heritage Arms 9 mm handgun, numerous sandwich bags containing tan powder, over 1,500 glassine packets containing tan powder, over $20,000, two digital scales, an electric grinder coated with tan residue, and numerous additional glassine packets and clear plastic bags.
A field test of a sample of the powder yielded a positive result for heroin.
The powder in the clear plastic bags weighed about 200 grams.
The serial number of the handgun was destroyed and could not be read.
Rivera-Rosario had previously been arrested by the Pennsylvania State Police on numerous drug related charges.
On July 10, 2013, Rivera-Rosario pleaded guilty to criminal conspiracy to delivery of a controlled substance and delivery of a controlled substance, both felony charges that prohibit Rivera-Rosario from possessing a firearm.
Rivera-Rosario faces charges of possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance; possession of a controlled substance; possession of drug paraphernalia; persons not to possess, use, manufacture, control, sell or transfer firearms; and possession of firearm with altered manufacturer’s number.
He is currently incarcerated in the Lehigh County Correctional Facility in lieu of $250,000 bail, and is scheduled to have a preliminary hearing Friday in Central Court at the Lehigh County Courthouse.

I changed this to say, I hate what heroin is doing to this nation.
I'll stick to my original thought, that I find it amazing that Presidential Candidate Pete Butagig wants to decriminalize heroin. Heroin is a gateway drug to communism.
Register and get out to vote, we need to turn this ship around.

Oh... Pete said that heroin possession would not be illegal or would at most be a misdemeanor.
“Mayor, you not only want to decriminalize marijuana, you want to decriminalize all drug possession. You say the better answer is treatment, not incarceration,” Fox News Sunday anchor Chris Wallace said. “Isn’t the fact that it’s illegal to have, to possess meth and heroin, doesn’t that at least in some way, the fact that it’s illegal act as some deterrent to trying it in the first place?”
“I think of what we need to focus on is where you have distribution,” Buttigieg said. “Possession would not be dealt with through incarceration.”
