I can check with the chemists but I believe that meth is easy enough to
make from fairly easily obtained and inexpensive base chemicals that using
commerical pills as a starter would not be economical.
It's a dangerous process but not a hard one.
Are you sure they're making "methamphetamine" and not just concentrating
pseudo-ephedrine into a crystaline form?
They are definately making meth. And they are definately using
pseuphedrine and other cold pills as part of the base - takes other
chemicals as well. Smells like a sewer when they make the stuff - set
up labs often in temporary sites, like rent a hotel room for a week,
move when folks start complaining about the smell. Do it in a mobil
home that they keep moving. That kind of thing. Mobil home or hotel
rental work well since they have to move around to get enough of the
pseuphedrine. Cops are finding labs by watching the pseuphedrine sales
- mandatory reporting on multiple packages bought at one store. All
sales videorecorded. They track back from the sale to find the buyer,
and trace the lab from that. Its the new cash "crop" of SEK. Lots of
burnt out farmers have a lab going in a back barn.... There may be
other ways for chemists to get the chemicals, but around here either
folks don't know how to get the stuff another way, or this is the
only"recipe" they know. Its big business around here. Joy
