(DMT) Lexington Police Arrest Three Men On Charges Of Making Hallucinogen

Three men were arrested Wednesday night on charges of trafficking in a drug that Lexington police said they've never dealt with before.
John Long, 22, Shaun Ebner, 20, and Johnathon Grant, 22, of Tulane Drive were making the hallucinogenic substance dimethyltryptamine, known as DMT, in a vacant house on the street, police said. Police Lt. Scott Blakely said the three men lived next door to the house where the DMT lab was found. The men also were charged with cultivating marijuana.
Police received a call about 2 p.m. Wednesday that a maintenance worker had "found meth-making materials in a crawl space," police spokeswoman Sherelle Roberts said. The property is owned by Anderson Communities, Roberts said.
Police had to wait for the substance to cool; they used ice to speed up the process. Fire trucks and police vehicles blocked the street as the crews cleaned up the house.
Blakely estimated that the cleanup could cost the owner of the house $7,000 to $10,000.

Fucking idiots.
Why do people think that using a "vacant" house to do their dirty work is a good idea?

Police had to use ice to speed up the process of cooling down "the substance"??? WTF were these morons doing???
I know that there are teks out there that advocate using heat to speed up the extraction process, but it is an unnecessarily smelly, dangerous and obnoxious way to go about it. A simple STB can be done quickly and with no odor, and is by far the stealthiest way to extract DMT from plant matter.
These guys made themselves an easy target. Sad. This is going to F up their lives for a long time to come.

None. Water, bark and NaOH go in a sealed jar. Naphtha is added on top a day later (all at room temp) and the lid goes back on.
The DMT saturated naphtha is decanted off into a sealed jar and put in the freezer. Precipitated crystals abound. Naphtha returned to original jar for a repeat performance. Done.
No odor at any time except for the 2 - 3 minutes it takes to transfer the naphtha, which smells pretty decent as far as solvents go.

I don't mean to go too off topic here, but I thought the final evaporation to produce crystals (after all the pulls) would stink? Or to put it another way, once all the DMT is pulled into the naptha and you leave the dish out to evaporate?
Love the Tek by the way, great reading material

freeze precipitation is the best way to remove alkaloids from the solvent, & there is no evap smell that way... evaporating leaves trace impurities in the final product that don't occur with freeze precip...
the "cool down" thing makes me wonder if the guys had just mixed the NaOH & the bark, the jars are rather hot for a while then... maybe the maint. guy showed up unexpectedly & they bolted... i know when i extract, all my equipment is usually stored & relatively innocent looking (except for the sep funnel) within an hour or two, tops...

Jackassy, is the word that fits here. I wonder if they got a breaking and entering along with the other charges.

When they busted a DMT extraction "lab" near me the cops had bio hazard suits and decontamination showers. They want you to think that drug operations are dirty and will destroy the house, and they just saved the neighbourhood.

N.B.
Perhaps they were using excess lye, and they had just added the lye with the water and plant matter. If you use a very big jar, with a solution saturated with a shit ton of lye, that can throw off quite a bit of heat from the reaction. To the point where the jar is noticeably quite warm to the touch...

Good point, the mixed jars can still irritate your skin, IDK how bad though.
Getting burned by lye sucks balls.
