Yesterday, an Indiana State Police SWAT raided a trap house occupied by alleged cocaine dealer Eric Butler.
The 33-year-old had the misfortune of selling crack to a confidential informant earlier in the week — and one who paid with specially marked bills.
When the police came in, Butler tried to flee through an attic window. Ā The cops grabbed him before he got far and arrested him on a level 2 felony charge for dealing cocaine.

In addition, they seized $95 of the marked money, a gold necklace with the inscription “Must Obey Bosses Forever,” 55 grams of crack cocaine, 29 grams of powder cocaine, 12 grams of fentanyl, and a semi-automatic pistol with ammunition.
Crime almost always doesn’t pay.
