North Port Police say millions in potential synthetic drugs seized mysuncoast.com
NORTH PORT, Fla. - North Port Police Department detectives say they've seized more than $2 million worth of equipment and supplies used to make synthetic marijuana. It has one local man behind bars.
Detectives served a search warrant Wednesday at a house on Tamiami Trail near Biscayne Drive. Inside they found thousands of bags and jars ready for distribution, garbage bags full of the green leafy plant onto which a chemical mixture is put on, some of the chemicals, including acetone, even a cement mixer used to put it all together.
Detectives say each bag of the product, commonly called K-2 or Spice, can be sold on the street for between $7 and $15 each. A total of $2.2 million worth in this case they say.
Arrested was 33-year old Sayed Mohammed Jan, who is connected with a bust for the same thing in Lee County recently.
His arrest is having sweeping effects. "This is obviously a very momentous event in the battle against K-2 and synthetic marijuana. The magnitude of these two cases, ours and the nexus to Lee County...we are pretty confident it is going affect the Southeast United States," says Deputy Chief Anthony Sirianni.
Jan has been charged with possession, manufacturing, and paraphernalia among others. Immigration and customs is also involved. It's unclear if he is actually a U.S. citizen.
Police say they've had reports of the drugs causing aggression, delusions, heart attacks, and even death. Issues not typically linked to actual marijuana.

They still fool themselves into thinking that they aren't wasting time after how many years of failing to control drugs even inside something as simple as a prison?

And I think that's one of the most telling statements about the efficacy of the war on drugs. Unless you take away 100% of a person's freedoms and rights, something they don't even do with most prisoners, and which they certainly can't do in the greater population without openly instituting a totalitarian system, you can not control the flow of drugs.

Yep, I live in Lee County and posted this story last week. In fact, I live and work about 2 miles from the houses that got raided.... crazy shit! I delivered pizza to one of the dudes multiple times. really nice guy, tipped VERY well in all 1 dollar bills haha.
There's A LOT of shit going down in SWFL right now, especially with "spice busts" as well call it. Gas stations have gotten hit too... like 20 of them since the summer I wanna say.
cheers
EDIT: forgot to add... from what I know about the first bust, one of the guys was already on probation for a DUI, and put all 3 of them together they must have worked with authorities to catch the guy that was making the stuff originally. They had 3 houses down in my neigborhood apparently- one for packaging, one for distribution, etc... but I don't think they were making a large quantity of the stuff... which explains this bust.

..psh, fucking war on drugs is bullshit. How do they feel justified making laws to regulate what I can and can not put into my body. Im not a fan of that fake pot shit, or towel heads. But I hope that man made a million before he got busted, and has it all stashed away somewhere. Fuck the drug war.
