Avon is responsible for bringing in the spiked drugs via officer Tilghman. Firstly, to get back at Tilghman for his treatment of Weebay and then to use the incident as a way to shave years off his sentence by informing the prison how the drugs entered the prison.
Avon was totally behind the apokong of the drugs, that's why Stringer went to Blind Butchie last episode saying Avon came calling. Butchie was the one supplying Tilghman with the drugs.
Avon sent stringer to Butch to arrange for tilghmans next package to be spiked. It took me 3 watches to confirm this. Intricate story telling. Keep up the great work!!! Always enjoy new perspectives. Excellent call on stringer looking down on his subordinates!!
You didn't think Avon spiked the prison package lol I'm never surprised by how much people miss in THE WIRE with less than 5 rewatches of the series from beginning to end. They literally took time to slowly walk the audience through not only how the drugs got spiked but also who did it & what the motivation was behind the why it was done. #IETVandMovieTalk #WeJustTalkingTVandMOVIES #TellemTANKseddit #TANKTheTVandMovieMaven
Be nice, it's her first time. Another reviewer I watched thought that *Stringer* spiked the package in order to take out D *and* Avon and become the kingpin, so I'd say she's doing OK lol
Don't let the real world propaganda or season 5 of this show fool you, they are extremely well-paid. Not just base salary but overtime and benefits. Baltimore City cops also exploit the shit out of it to the point where an audit a few years ago showed one guy making over a million a year. Where I live, not too far from here, there was a story last year about a cop making more than the mayor.
Notice that D's best friend in prison died to those hotshots - Avon just had his friend murdered and is asking D to trade that in for some time off his sentence - it's basically blood money.
5:12 I think it's more of the case of nobody cares/wants to put the effort in like McNulty does. He's basically doing this out of his free time because all he has is work, otherwise his life is pretty shit.
