Marion's Alleged "Blue Drop" Heroin Kingpin Indicted

Marion Police

A Marion man accused of selling fatal doses of 'blue drop' heroin has been indicted on federal charges.  Prosecutors say 32-year-old Eric Creagh sold the heroin/fentanyl combination that led to the May overdose death of 31-year-old Christopher Wolford. Creagh faces a nine-count indictment. Creagh was arrested in June. Police accuse  him of being the main supplier in Marion, where 56 people have overdosed and five have died in the last several months.
