75 ounces of cocaine and crack are not a small amount

1316 grams of cocaine plus 768 grams of crack ='s 2 kilo's, 48grams of total powder.
Hardly enough to remotely consider that this is some kind of big dope ring.
Small time low-lifes deal in that kind of weight....
...Unless ATF blew the timing on this one and didn't get the 'motherload' of dope.
Dope busts with these amounts of drugs by local LE don't even make the paper around here.
With a years investigation and hard telling the amount of man hrs., this bust, unless its tied to something much larger, surely won't go down in the record books. However, as small as the bust was, I'm glad they got the guns and drugs off the street.

When a LEA is proud of a bust or sting they lists the drug amount seized in kilos not grams.

Correct, unless the amount seized is this small, then they list it in a way that makes it sound larger to the public.
