‘This the life that I live’: Richard Brewster — a.k.a. 'Richie Stacks' — is an alleged Toronto gang member accused of trafficking large amounts of fentanyl to northern Ontario
This is a story about gang life and all its trappings — namely drug trafficking and the heightened incidents of violent crime and the exponential increases in mental health and addiction issues that come with it — leaching into other parts of Ontario as the narcotics trade reaches new heights through the overtaking of small towns across the province.
Brewster — a 41-year-old man with a lengthy history of drug dealing, carjacking and gang life as an alleged member of the Toronto Driftwood Crips — also moonlights as rapper "Richie Stacks," whose songs can be found on YouTube and Spotify. All told, police seized $470,000 worth of narcotics during MacDonald Avenue search warrants, including 700 grams of fentanyl — a record one-time seizure for the Sault Ste. Marie Police Service.
In addition to Toronto’s hip hop scene, Brewster is well-known to police in the Greater Toronto Area, according to a long list of press clippings.
