Associated Press: Package labeled 'Bag Full of Drugs' leads to Florida arrests
    #26475310 - 02/08/20 11:08 AM (4 years, 9 days ago)

Package labeled ‘Bag Full of Drugs’ leads to Florida arrests

MIAMI (AP) — Two men charged with drug trafficking could have done a better job hiding their wares than using a package labeled “Bag Full of Drugs,” Florida authorities said.

Ian Simmons and Joshua Reinhardt, both 34, were pulled over in Santa Rosa County on Saturday after a trooper clocked them going 95 mph (153 kph) on Interstate 10 on the state’s Panhandle, according to a Florida Highway Patrol arrest report.

The trooper determined that Reinhardt was the subject of an active felony warrant for violation of probation in Orange County. He requested backup.

A Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s deputy arrived to assist, and a K-9 alerted to the presence of contraband in the vehicle, the arrest report said. Authorities found approximately 75 grams of methamphetamine, 1.36 kilograms of the date-rape drug GHB, 1 gram of cocaine, 3.6 grams of fentanyl, 15 MDMA tablets and drug paraphernalia.

Both men were taken into custody and taken to jail. They are charged with trafficking in methamphetamine and GHB, three counts of possession of a controlled substance, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

“Note to self- do not traffic your illegal narcotics in bags labeled ‘Bag Full Of Drugs,’” deputies wrote on Facebook. “Our K-9’s can read.”

Jail records did not say whether the men had attorneys who could comment.

I guess the implication here is that human officers can't.

Does GHB have uses other than date raping or is that it’s sole use?

lol(no offense), I almost made a post about how I hate that this tag follows GHB around everywhere it goes...yes. Lots. It's a recreational drug(and prescription medicine) just like any other, and can be used in a very large variety of ways which can elicit a wide range of effects by varying the dose. People also use it to self-medicate insomnia and anxiety, and its used by body builders/steroid users to increase human growth hormone levels.

It can make a "good" date rape drug because with a large enough dose you can render someone completely unconscious, it will dissolve completely in drinks, and has a taste that is easy enough to mask in cocktails.

And at the time it gained said reputation it could be bought OTC, meaning anyone interested in raping could get their hands on it without anyone knowing or needing to be part of a drug using social circle.

But it was never, ever its primary use. Benzos are used as date rape drugs far more than GHB...calling GHB the date rape drug would be no different than saying "the date rape drug Xanax" every single time you mention it(like they do with GHB).

GHB isn't a drug you run into a lot of the streets, but it is still popular in clubs, especially gay clubs(as is methamphetamine).

Exactly.

It was just sensationalism that took hold around the time GHB became known to the public "date-rape drug sold OTC" drew a lot more readers than "club goers get high on dietary supplement". And the moniker hasn't let loose since, even though there was never really a time where one person would sell GHB to another and assume they were about to go rape someone with it.

Meth and GHB? Sounds like these boys wanted to get caught for the free peggings in prison.

To be fair GHB would be a much better date rape drug than alcohol. You'd need multiple drinks to get date raped. GHB you'd just put a tablespoon in with one drink and it is pretty much unnoticeable if it's mixed with enough liquid.

But GHB is more fun than alcohol so people probably have a good time with it instead of going out rapin. Damn I wish could find the stuff easily still, it's what I wanted alcohol to be.

Doing 95 on an interstate in Florida of all places with a warrant out for your arrest while carrying a bag full of drugs labeled "Bag Full of Drugs" just seems like an impressively stupid thing to do. That's just begging to get caught. This is like a guide of what not to do.

I would feel bad for them, but the fact that they were carrying fentanyl removes all sympathy I would otherwise have. Fuck fentanyl.

It's not about whats better...its about what is used for said purpose more often.

Yeah, I kind of assumed they were part of the gay club/party scene. The only thing missing from their inventory is a case full of poppers.

Stigma associated with certain substances blows my mind

Never had the opportunity to try ghb, but I wonder if its similar in effect to benzodiazepines?

I love my downers....

Stigma of drugs is based on propaganda instead of reality and is way more harmful to society as a whole than drugs overall.

GHB when used for recreational purposes (not rape) is oh so much better than benzos or ethanol. It effects a different gaba receptor (Gaba-b) that only a few other common drugs hit as well (phenibut and baclofen).

Think of alcohol but with a clear head and 100x the euphoria. The euphoria is so great that it hurts. Also doesnt have a hangover, but seems to cause much more rebound anxiety than alcohol.

The only downside to GHB is that if you take too large of a dose you will go into a deep, unrousable, sleep for 3-4 hours. Hence why you only hear it called a date-rape drug when mentioned in the media. Its pretty easy to find GHB prodrugs online though so I figure if it were really being used for rape very often wed here a lot more about it.

Yeah I was going to say it's like an improved version of alcohol with even a tiny bit of mdma in there.

Nah, just salty or bitter depending on whether it's sodium or potassium GHB. There might be others but I've only tried those two salts. But GBL tastes like DMSO if you've ever tasted that :lol:

Nope, and you only need a few ml of it to be completely gone. You dont have to take shot after shot like alcohol.

I’ve never even heard it so much as mentioned out there in the real world.  Seems odd that I wouldn’t have heard even a faint whisper of a rumor..  Probably best I never found it all things considered.

It is very addicting as well. And coming off of it is hell from what ive heard if you do it multiple times a day every day for months.

The only thing its prescribed for is Narcolepsy. It knocks a person out at night and then the rebound keeps them up all day so they dont go to sleep at work or something. Drs literally treating narcolepsy by getting the patient physically dependent on GHB.
