  • 1974:  Donald Munson testifies against Nick Sand, Tim Scully and Lester Friedman




Quote:

Writer tells of helping in Windsor LSD laboratory

  SAN FRANCISCO—A freelance writer, granted immunity from prosecution, testified yesterday [January 9, 1974] he helped obtain materials for an elaborate and illegal LSD laboratory in Windsor.
  Donald Munson. 41, was on the witness stand in the federal court trial of Nicholas Sand, 31, a former Cloverdale resident, Robert T. Scully, 28, Mendocino, and Lester Friedman. 44, a Cleveland, Ohio chemistry professor.
  The charges involved an alleged international network of drug manufacture and sales, and the alleged use of foreign banks to launder illicit income.
  Sand and Scully are charged with conspiring to manufacture LSD and of evading taxes.
  Friedman, an assistant professor at Case Western Reserve University, is charged only with conspiracy.
  Munson testified he helped Sand and Scully purchase a pill making machine, and sent them drugs from Europe.
  He said he understood the materials were for the Windsor laboratory which authorities said operated in early 1969 in a home at 1367 Wilson Lane.

Wow so that was fairly new when the dead tried it out. Read in an interview with Jerry that they were sipping on that when they were putting Aoxomoxoa together. Said it was some weird stuff.

Now at the time we were sipping STP during our session, which made it a little weird‒ in fact, very weird

Ah, Shulgin, what an amazing man. He was really like a thousand Hofmanns in one. The things he made. The things he taught people how to make. Unbelievable.

For those who didn't watch the video -- it has Art Linkletter claiming that his daughter's suicide was caused by LSD.

This is from Snopes: ( http://www.snopes.com/horrors/drugs/linkletter.asp )

"Robert's (Robert Linkletter) account of it appears to be the source of all claims that Diane's death was related to LSD, both the original claims that she had taken drugs the night before and died while on an out-of-control trip, and the later claims that she had experienced flashbacks from a bad trip taken six months earlier and was panicked into taking her own life. (The story changed once Diane was autopsied and the results of toxicological tests became known. Nothing unusual turned up in the screening, thus ruling out her having taken drugs that night.)

55th anniversary of Shulgin trying STP/DOM for the first time.  Also, 45th anniversary of Donald Munson taking the stand and snitching out Sand, Scully and Friedman.  Side note about Munson, according to the book The Brotherhood Of Eternal Love by Stewart Tendler & David May, Munson was the one who brought the psilocybin back to America that would eventually kill John Griggs. 





Quote:

The BDAC men had stopped the tableting process, but Sand was still merrily churning out STP from his San Francisco plant. However, there was no way of turning it into presentable form for the street.
    Out of that grey, cold mist that seemed to Scully to be creeping up on the psychedelic movement and infiltrating it with the mores of professional criminality, came Donald Munson. Munson claimed to have the solution to Sand's problem.
    He was discovered by accident at a Hollywood party where he appeared to be very knowledgeable about the drug world. Pressed by other guests, he claimed to know where certain types of equipment were easily obtainable. One of the guests passed the information back to Sand, who conferred with Scully. The two made contact with Munson and found themselves with a very unlikely character. Donald Munson, in his mid-thirties, was a onetime gold smuggler who now worked as the scriptwriter for a religious programme on TV. But the demands of scriptwriting could be set aside if the price was right. He did indeed know of a tableting machine which was in the hands of a man called 'Joe'. If that did not sound a little dubious to Sand and Scully, 'Joe' could be found in Chicago, where the gangsters were supposed to work and play.

'Joe' was huge. A heavy-set man dressed in a black suit, dark gloves and dark hat, he looked like a cross between an American football player and an undertaker. Furthermore, at the meeting place outside Chicago's main airport, it was quite clear that he was none too impressed by his customers. Scully and Sand, the latter with a bankroll in his back pocket, shook hands as Munson introduced them. The two chemists, dressed in jeans, could feel the restrained power in the man's grip. Was that bulge in his jacket a gun?
    Ushered into 'Joe's' car, as sombre as the dress of its owner, the chemists found themselves being driven along the shore of Lake Michigan. It was a dark, wet night and the lake looked wide, deep and hostile. Sand could feel the bankroll burning in his back pocket.
    And then the car stopped. The engine no longer muffled the sound of the rain and the wind.
    'Joe' turned round in the seat and said: 'I'd like to show you my gun collection.'
    Sand and Scully froze as the man reached forward into the car's glove compartment. 'Joe' brought out a gun and passed it over to the back seat.
    What were the two chemists to do? Turn the gun on the man and make a run for it? Keep cool.
    They admired the gun.
    'Joe' reached into the glove compartment again. He turned round with two large marijuana cigarettes.
    'You guys wanna smoke?'
    With considerable relief and some bewilderment, the two chemists lit up. For a Mafia man, 'Joe' had some very quaint habits. It began to dawn on Scully and Sand that things were not quite as they appeared.
    'Joe' introduced himself properly as Joe Helpern; it became clear, as the night wore on, that the nearest he had got to organized crime was having a Chicago address. He drove to a motel which he said was owned by 'our people' and where the chemists were told, 'Anything you want, just ask.' Once everyone was booked in, Helpern produced a shopping bag of best marijuana to pass away the evening. Over dinner he played chess with Munson. Afterwards he discussed Gurdjieff with Sand. No... whatever Helpern was, he was not Mafia.
    The next day he turned out to be the salesman for two ancient tableting presses stored in Detroit. Sand paid $7,000 for machines that he would have to cannibalize into one working piece of equipment. Munson got a third of the price for the machines which, even transformed into one, still never worked properly.

------------------------------

Munson went out to Czechoslovakia in search of materials at source, posing as the East European representative of the fictitious firm of Syntex Lavine, the latter name taken from the name of his apartment building in New York. Attempts to reach senior officials of the state chemical company proved negative. Sand went out on a second, fruitless journey. All their efforts had yielded was a quantity of psilocybin bought from a Swiss dealer on the way to Prague. Munson smuggled the drugs back into the United States. Sand, a regular visitor to the Brotherhood ranch, passed some on to Griggs.

S t p.....the old serenity tranquilly and peace ,  owelsy and skulls had misjudged its potency I hear ....,


Phenylethylaminde structure , I ve always wanted to taste it , I hear it's beautiful with the right dose . Rip shulgin and thank you for your life's work !

He said in a quote on it that one person had thought they were dying on it , they felt alone and unprepared , and then came out of that loop a couple hours later and could enjoy it .

Still , to understand that mortality s end would be presented to you being unprepared is sorta a kind of preparation I think . Psychedelics are such incredible teachers if used correctly . What else is there to say that hasn't already about them .

I was just watching on true hallucinations about McKenna and la churrocha (sp) experiment and I've been real curious on the vocalizatiins Dennis spoke of . This is truly an age for the metaphysical and mental exploration .


--------------------

The really important facts were that spatial relationships had ceased to matter very much and that my mind was perceiving the world in terms of other than spatial categories. At ordinary times the eye concerns itself with such problems as where? — how far? — how situated in relation to what? In the mescaline experience the implied questions to which the eye responds are of another order. Place and distance cease to be of much interest. The mind does its perceiving in terms of intensity of existence, profundity of significance, relationships within a pattern."
