NEW YORK—Ross Mtangi, a trading executive at Credit Suisse Group AG, left his Manhattan penthouse in March 2021 with his laptop and told his pregnant partner he was going to work.

He checked into a nearby hotel and tuned in to work calls. Later, he texted for cocaine from a drug delivery service. A man wearing a baseball cap, cross-body bag and face mask appeared on hotel surveillance.
Mr. Mtangi, 40 years old, missed a follow up meeting. His sister and her partner found him dead at the hotel the next day. Police found on a table translucent black baggies that contained lethal fentanyl mixed in with the cocaine.
In the East Village, first-year lawyer Julia Ghahramani, 26, texted the same delivery service the same day. She also died. She had just started her career remotely at Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP.
Social worker Amanda Scher, 38, did the same. She died in the Greenwich Village apartment she shared with her Chihuahua-Corgi rescue dog. It was a stone’s throw from where she had received her master’s degree at New York University.
The three high-achieving New Yorkers had texted the DoorDash-style cocaine delivery service on a late winter Wednesday. They all died from the illicit fentanyl that had been mixed into it.
Fentanyl is a powerful legal opioid, prescribed for cancer patients and others with severe pain. Traffickers have found it is easy and inexpensive to make. The illicit form has spread throughout the illegal drug market, turning up in heroin as well as pills stamped out to look like oxycodone or Adderall and other drugs.
Dealers also cut it into cocaine, a stimulant, to be more potent and addictive, introducing the drug to unsuspecting buyers. A tiny amount of fentanyl can kill unseasoned users.
“Hey try not to do too much because it’s really strong,” read a text sent to Ms. Scher later that night from the delivery number. Ms. Ghahramani missed seven calls from the number. -

door dash delivers food. they deliver drugs.
Im guessing they pay up front using crypto and then instead of a pizza it's a bag of drugs. however, it could be Uber Eats who will hand you off food as well and you deliver what might be a bag of fries with some fent laced cocaine. -

Yeah you would think. it might be a huge Russian Mafia thing is my guess.

2022-10-24 at 9:36 AM UTCI hate when people refer to their heterosexual girlfriend/boyfriend as their "partner" like dude c'mon call it your girlfriend, your wife, or some shit, whenever I hear "He told his partner" i think wow that dude must like suckin dick, then I find out it's a girl he's 'partnered' up with and I don't get it.
That's your GIRLFRIEND. You say Partner because it's not OK to be gay, so you just say like o dis my special friend, or this is my long term roommate or invariably, "this is my partner."
shits irritating as fuck, like can you imagine if I had a 12 year old son I hung out with and I started calling him my 'partner?'
gay af, stop stealing my termsThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
