heroin_dealing_nyc — New York heroin distribution (2006)

Description

Directed network of communication among 38 members of a large heroin distribution organisation in New York City in the 1990s, reconstructed by Natarajan (2006) from the transcripts of telephone conversations intercepted by police wiretaps. Nodes are individuals (vertex property name, anonymised), and a directed edge indicates communication (flow of information) from one person to the other. Data distributed by the UCINET datasets collection (University of Manchester).1
