DEA teaches meth-cooking 101 [CO]

DEA holds awareness class to show citizens how easy it is to make the drug.

Cooking methamphetamine takes only a few hours and requires simple household ingredients, like striker plates from matchbooks, the guts of lithium batteries, drain cleaner.

"It's pretty gross," said Matt Leland, who works in career services at the University of Northern Colorado and who recently helped cook the drug in a lab. "If someone was truly interested in manufacturing meth, it would not be that hard."

The Drug Enforcement Administration invited Leland and other citizens - such as software engineers, a teacher, a pastor and a school principal - to make methamphetamine last week in a lab at Metropolitan State College of Denver.

"At first, I thought, 'Man, I cannot believe they showed us how to do it.' But you can find the recipe on the Internet," Leland said. "It just goes to show anybody who really wants to do it probably could."
The class was held as part of the DEA's first Citizens Academy in order to give the public a close-up view of what the agency does to keep drugs off the street.

Although meth remains a significant problem across the U.S., the number of clandestine labs has dropped because some of the ingredients are harder to obtain.

Pseudoephedrine tablets, such as Sudafed, are now generally behind pharmacy counters and not readily available for purchase in massive amounts. The tablets are boiled down by drug cooks to extract meth-making chemicals.

"There are parties where cooks have free beer and drugs and people sit around tearing striker plates and removing tablets from their foil packs," said Paul Eyerly, a DEA chemist.

But Eyerly says that chemists and DEA agents are not called out to meth labs as much as they were in the late 1980s and 1990s.

Last year, 102 labs were discovered in Colorado, down from an eight-year high of 425 labs in 2002, according to DEA statistics.

Roger Ely, another DEA chemist, said agents still need to stay on top of the problem, testing recipes they find on the Internet and learning the many ways the drugs can be made so they can testify against manufacturers in court.

"The crooks are always coming up with new technologies even though the chemistry stays the same," Ely said.

Jeff Sweetin, the DEA's special agent in charge of the Rocky Mountain region, says methamphetamine is now largely a smuggling issue. Most of the product comes from Mexican cartels that manufacture the drugs in "superlabs" where cooks are capable of quickly making pound after pound, he said.

Sweetin said Mexican authorities are trying to stop the manufacturing of meth in their country by implementing the restrictions on ingredients that exist in the U.S.

"They are a full partner in our meth issues right now," Sweetin said.

Lisa Tennyson, a financial crimes investigator who attended the class, said she was affected most by photographs the DEA showed her. One was of a man who had cut out his own intestines while under the influence of meth and another of a man whose skin was peeling off from burns he got making the drug.

"When you think about what they are putting into their body, ... you would not go and buy that stuff and drink it," she said. "I mean, would you buy drain cleaner and take a sip of it?"

I find it interesting the DEA teaches how to make meth to ordinary joes but they refuse to allow universities to grow medical marijuana for their studies? (Except Univ. Mississippi has some weed I think?)

It's a shame that lab didn't blow up when those pigs were cooking.

The birch reduction method only simplified works really good a friend once told me hehehe.




The Birch reduction is an elegant reaction but that anhydrous ammonia is a bitch. One unprotected breath and you'll be sorry you ever screwed with it.

I too dislike it when people try to put a negative spin on a given drug by citing the dangerous properties of the chemicals used in making it. That logic only works on fools who don't understand chemistry at least. Which is quite a few people sadly, chemistry is arguably the central science. One would think the average person would put some effort into understanding the subject at least on the high school level.
