Title: Peanut King's Children Author: Deborah George Narrator: Lisa Simeone, Deborah George Format: Original Recording Length: 23 mins Language: English Release date: 04-03-17 Publisher: Soundprint Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Criminals Publisher's Summary: Maurice Peanut King was a successful drug dealer in East Baltimore and a transitional figure in the drug trade. He bridged the world of the old school gangsters and the kid gangstas of today. He was the first to recruit children to work for him ten-, eleven- and twelve-year-olds equipped with mopeds. After the addict gave his money to the corner man, one of Peanuts kids would speed by and toss him the drugs. The kids easily eluded the cops and, if they were caught, didnt require any outlay in bail or lawyers fees. Award winning producer Deborah George tells the story of the Baltimore drug trade 30 years ago, before it was common for children to sell drugs or carry guns.
