Drug overdose deaths
set new Oregon record
PORTLAND (AP) — A highly
potent form of heroin con
tributed to about two-thirds of
the record 131 drug overdose
deaths in Oregon last year.
"It's tar heroin," said Dr. Uir
rv V. I.ewnian, the Oregon state
medical examiner. "It's usually
40 to 80 percent pure, but you
don't know which. It's Russian
roulette with a needle."
There were 100 deaths in Ore
gon from drug overdoses in
1992
Portland police Lt Kd May
says new heroin supply lines are
bringing in batches with widely
different potencies. 1! addicts
ale expecting heroin that is less
than 20 percent pure, they can
easily overdose if the hatch
turns out to lie 40 percent pure
The traditional supply lines
go trout Mexic to l.us Angeles
to Portland Several times along
the yvuy. the heroin is "< nt," or
mixed with something else to
increase the amount of the drug
and therefore the profits
Hut a way for some heroin
runners to increase their profits
is to bypass the supply boos
altogether, bringing it straight
from Mexico. Because fewer
people handle the drug before it
is sold, it is cut less, and
stronger With old suppliers and
new suppliers, addicts have a
difficult time telling how strong
the drug is
May doesn't think more peo
ple are using heroin, nor does he
believe that more heroin is
available in the city "It's c.v< li
cal," he said
The total number ol drug
overdose deaths reai bed '0 in
I out), then dropped more than
half the follow mg year Deaths
rose again during the next three
years, peaking -it H t in 1990,
then dropped more than half the
next year
haw enforcement officials
attribute both drops to the arrest
of two mu|or heroin dealers.
Pamela Mejia Armenia in 198"
and Girlos li Onintes Arriaga in
1991. The year of each arrest,
heroin overdoses dropped about
60 percent
Second man sentenced i
to life for jogger slaying
MADRAS (AP) — A has sentenced Roger Half He< K to lilt* in
prison with a 20-year minimum for the 1978 Christmas l.vn slaving
of a woman jogger in the (.amp Sherman area
The sentence, imposed Monday by Jefferson County Circuit Judge
Gary Thompson, followed Heck s conviction on two i mints of aggra
vated murder and three counts of murder in the killing of Kaye I urn
or.
Thompson previously sentenced John Arthur Ackroyd to an iden
tical sentence in the case.
Prosecutors say the men kidnapped and raped I urner and then
fatally stabbed and shot her.
Turner, 25, of Eugene, disappeared when she went jogging in the
community of Camp Sherman, about 10 miles from Santiam Summit
She had been vacationing with her family
The sentences against Ackroyd and Beck were the maximum that
could be handed down under laws that existed at the time of the
killing.
Dressed in a blue jail jumpsuit and wearing handcuffs. Bet k
appeared angry when the )udge asked if he wanted to make a state
ment.
"Yes, your honor,” Beck said "I’m not guilty All 1 m going to
say is everybody gave me the shaft
Beck also blasted the method in which he was questioned about
Turner's murder
"Nobody will let you tell the truth, he said. How are you going
to tell the truth if you have to answer yes or no' You can t tell the
