Last month, we told you about the Massachusetts drug dealer who had his $35,000 sneaker collection seized by police, and today we're learning of another dealer who actually used the Air Jordan brand name to sell her product.

The Bristol Press reports that 28-year-old Solimar Santiago of Bristol, Conn. has rejected a plea deal that could have cut down her sentence for selling heroin. According to police, Santiago sold the product straight from her front porch and went by the name "Soli."

Upon beginning their investigation last December, police recovered five bags of heroin stamped with the phrase "Air Jordan 23." You read that correctly — this woman's "Air Jordans" were literally dope.

Now, Santiago's fate will be decided at trial beginning on September 9.
