Thanks,Rollin.

You're a true Wire-head, so season 5....seeing McNulty you already know what he's up to...and how that convo fits the story.

Baltimore is heroin central, so it makes sense that it would pop up there first but I was surprised to hear it mentioned.

Found a link from a fed archive site from 2006 about Fen. deaths in Baltimore

Remember,I was super late to catch on to the Wire..so when I first started watching I thought the fiends were crack heads.
