Police drop on Picton man
Drug trafficking charges have been laid against a Picton man following the seizure of nearly $70,000 worth of a hallucinogen known as DMT.
Prince Edward OPP report members of the Organized Crime Enforcement Bureau, Project Longarm and the Canada Border Service Agency all played roles in the incident that ended with 40-year-old Derek Richardson being charged with importing a schedule three drug and possession of the drug for purposes of trafficking.
The agencies launched an investigation earlier this month when a shipment from Brazil was intercepted at Pearson International Airport in Toronto. The packages, which police report were destined for Richardson’s apartment in Picton, contained drugs known as dimethyltryptamine, a hallucinogen more commonly referred to as DMT, which is a natural compound found in many plants and shrubs.
Prince Edward OPP officers assisted with a search warrant at Richardson’s apartment and seized an additional 40 kilograms of the drug.
Combined with the packages seized at the airport, police confiscated a total of 120 kgs. Of the illegal drug. This translates to an estimated street value of $68,750 and equals approximately 13,750 hits of the drug, police report.
Richardson was held for a bail hearing.

I bet that's 120kgs of plant matter, so that translates to roughly one pound of DMT.

Which shows how inconsistent law enforcement 'information' is, as this translates to a little over a pound of DMT. Interesting huh?

Well, they apparently assume $5 a hit, and with a dose being somewhere around 50mg, this equals $100/g. Which I understand is roughly the price of cocaine, so I bet they just assume that DMT has the same market price as cocaine. Which is retarded too, but hey - those numbers are just a convenient service for journalists so that they don't need to wreck their brains about catchy headlines.

Wonder if this guy was just buying mimosa to re-sell online or something - not even extracting...says they just got "the drug" which if it is just mimosa rootbark - WTF? It didn't say anything at all about a conversion or extraction lab, sounds pretty innocent to me.

With that much bark, he was selling it online. I wonder if they bother going after customers.

120 Kilos of DMT would be a lot more than $68,750. At the bargain basement price of $1000 kilo, it would be more like$120,000.

They meant 120 kilos of MHRB, if they didn't find any spice we must all assume he was just using bark for natural dye and for making skin creams.
MHRB is usually 1.00-1.16% DMT by weight so 120 kilos is 1200 grams of dmt assuming you are going straight to base instead of an acid tek....I think, I'm just guessing

Word on the web is he is a popular Canadian vendor. I wonder if they are going to go after his customers. Being an online vendor sure makes an easy paper trail to follow.

If they did I would think only customers that bought large amounts regularly. Then again, they've probably heard the news by now, giving them time to clean up their prints. I bet it stops here

it never got to him to do an extraction, they took his mhrb as dmt

MHRB is not illegal in Canada.. The charges will most likely be dropped unless he has an extraction somewhere. I even called (skype motherfukers)Canada customs to ask before I bought a kilo of the stuff... To dye various eggs and whatnot.
In America I'd expect a ''conspiracy to manufacture'' charge.. Not sure if a Canadian court, especially not in a noufie province.

I wonder if they say it's being "manufactured" because it was ground up.
