When You Make Fake Money To Buy Drugs & Your Dealer Tries To Kill You

The Private Record — Episode 016 — "When You Make Fake Money To Buy Drugs & Your Dealer Tries To Kill You For It"

This story sounds and feels like a sequence from a movie BUT, the thing is, it ACTUALLY HAPPENED. And the fact that our guest Christina is even alive to tell us the tale is... well... absolutely and completely bingbong bonkers insane.

When Christina was a teenager she was hooked on heroin. Like, REALLY hooked. So hooked, in fact, that at one point she needed a fix so bad that she (along with two equally heroin-hooked friends) printed fake money (on regular computer paper!!!) to buy over 200 hundred dollars worth of H from their gang-affiliated dealer. Somehow, at first, the exchange goes off without a hitch— but when Christina's friend steps back into her car to drive off with the goods, Christina quickly realizes this will NOT be the clean getaway she was hoping for. What ensues is a high speed chase along an interstate freeway, infuriated gangbangers, and gunshots whizzing by the heads of Christina and her heroin-addled friends.
