WASHINGTON, DC ? DEA Administrator Karen P. Tandy today announced the culmination of ?Operation Web Tryp? that resulted in ten arrests and targeted five websites. Operation Web Tryp investigated Internet websites distributing highly dangerous designer drug analogues under the guise of ?research chemicals? primarily shipped to the U.S. from China and India. These websites are known to have thousands of customers worldwide. One website operator is known to conduct estimated sales of $20,000 per week, while another is known to have been in business for more than five years. These websites sold substances that led to the fatal overdose of at least two individuals and 14 non-fatal overdoses.

?The Internet has become the street corner for many drug users and traffickers. Drug pushers who use the Internet will find themselves out of business and behind bars,? Administrator Tandy said. ?These dealers now enter into the privacy of our own homes to entice and sell destruction to our children veiled under the illusion of being safe and legal. The formulation of analogues is like a drug dealer?s magic trick meant to fool law enforcement. They didn?t fool us and we must educate our children so they are not fooled either. Today?s action will help prevent future deaths and overdoses, and will serve as notice for those dealing in designer drugs and the illegal use of the Internet.?

ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS

This operation resulted in the following website operators arrests on July 21, 2004:

www.RACRESEARCH.COM and www.DUNCANLABPRODUCTS.COM
April Curtis and Doug Thompson, website operators of www.RACRESEARCH.COM, were arrested yesterday, July 21, in Arizona and Georgia, respectively. The arrests are based on charges of conspiracy to distribute controlled substance analogues out of the Southern District of New York. www.RACRESEARCH.COM has so far been linked to non-fatal overdoses of two college students. This investigation by DEA New York and the New York Police Department also uncovered the illegal distribution of designer drugs on www.DUNCANLABPRODUCTS.COM . This site was operated by Raymond Duncan and supplied by April Curtis. Duncan was arrested yesterday, July 21, in California based on charges of conspiracy to distribute controlled substance analogues. Both websites were voluntarily terminated.


www.PONDMAN.NU
David Linder, website operator of www.PONDMAN.NU was arrested yesterday. This investigation was conducted by DEA and the Naval Criminal Investigative Service in Norfolk, VA. The above site, which purportedly sold landscape supplies, also sold designer drugs. Linder supplied these drugs to U.S.-based Navy personnel who later held rave-style parties to facilitate further distribution. To date, an overdose death of an 18-year-old male and three non-fatal overdoses causing serious bodily injuries have been linked to www.PONDMAN.NU. Linder is charged with conspiracy to distribute controlled substance analogues out of the Eastern District of Virginia. This website will be voluntarily terminated.


www.AMERICANCHEMICALSUPPLY.COM
DEA Baton Rouge, LA initiated this investigation that resulted in yesterday?s arrest of Michael Burton, operator of www.AMERICANCHEMICALSUPPLY.COM. Charges against Burton and an unidentified coconspirator include illegal distribution with enhanced penalties for causing death, aiding and abetting, and forfeiture out of the Middle District of Louisiana. A restraining order will be issued to prevent use of this website.


www.OMEGAFINECHEMICALS.COM
DEA San Diego yesterday arrested Thomas Kasper, Joseph Kasper, Beth Badrak, and Elaine Villalobos, all California residents, on conspiracy charges to distribute controlled substance analogues, distribution of controlled substance analogues to individuals under the age of 21, and money laundering out of the Southern District of California. These four operated www.OMEGAFINECHEMICALS.COM. In addition to the arrests, DEA used warrants to search the Omega Business address, and the residence of Beth Badrak and Tom Kasper in Santa Barbara, CA. A seizure warrant will be served on the Omega website. Two bank accounts were also seized.

BACKGROUND ON DESIGNER DRUGS FROM OPERATION WEB TRYP

The products sold by the above mentioned websites are synthetic substances chemically identified as tryptamines, piperazines, and phenylethylamines. Some of these substances are specifically restricted under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) while others, when intended for human consumption, are controlled under the Controlled Substance Analogue Enforcement Act (CSAEA). Prior to the CSAEA, chemists would cause slight changes in the molecular structure of a controlled substance to circumvent the CSA. The CSAEA was enacted to arm law enforcement with the tools needed to stay one step ahead of the drug dealers? innovations. On the street and in Internet chat rooms these substances go by innocuous names such as ?Foxy Methoxy? and ?DIPT.? Many young people are led to believe that these substances are a form of ?legal? Ecstasy or LSD because they produce similar hallucinogenic effects. Adolescents and young adults are primary abusers of these chemicals. Many have the false impression that they are not as harmful or addictive as mainstream drugs such as heroin or cocaine. This is a highly dangerous emerging drug trend. Because the recommended dosages can vary by as little as a milligram, any slight miscalculation can cause fatal results.

OVERDOSE VICTIMS

In April 2002, an 18-year-old male in Hancock, New York died after consuming a chemical obtained from www.PONDMAN.NU. A 19-year-old male friend of the decedent later confirmed using similar chemicals obtained from www.PONDMAN.NU that resulted in him suffering from seizures, floating spots in his vision, memory lapses, uncontrollable teeth grinding and large lumps that would appear and disappear periodically on his face and neck.

In December 2003, police responded to a call of a college student found unconscious, unresponsive and turning blue on the kitchen floor of a residence in Fairhaven, Massachusetts. He had been lying on the floor for 45 minutes before a call for help was made. This student was suffering from the ingestion of a substance he obtained from www.RACRESEARCH.COM. This overdose victim now suffers from chronic, violent seizures.

In March 2004, a 22-year-old male resident of St. Francisville, Louisiana died after ingesting a substance he believed to be similar to Ecstasy. When found by his mother he asked to be driven to the hospital where he died three days later. His body temperature had reached an astounding 108 degrees. It was later found that the substance used was sent from www.AMERICANCHEMICALSUPPLY.COM, one of the targeted websites in this investigation.

These website operators attempted to give an appearance of legitimacy to their websites by presumably selling these chemicals to bona fide researchers; however, a review of customer lists revealed purchasers with e-mail addresses such as [Email]acidtripo420@;[/Email] [Email]ecstasylight@;[/Email] [Email]madtriper17@;[/Email] [Email]moontripperdipt@;[/Email] [Email]partys_with_glow_sticks@;[/Email] [Email]professor@;[/Email] [Email]psychedelic_stoner@;[/Email] and [Email]ravergirlny@.[/Email]

Can these drugs actually cause mad seizures, because I have been offered 2C-I and now this shit is freaking me out.

And all the while the pharms and their cronies in the FDA continue to market their taxable addictive/side-effect causing synthetic drugs. It's the War against SOME drugs.

Drugs are okay fine and dandy as long as Uncle Sam is the pusher.
Uncle Sam is the biggest and baddest drug dealer on the block.

What a sham.

"Won't somebody plz think of the children!?"
err.. These drugs are invading our homes and threatening our children by being marketed as safe and legal? Haha I'm sure on these websites it says "You can injest this and will be perfectly safe" HA!

It'd be good if that quote actually mentioned who the hell said it!
It's also stupid how they mention these overdoses but don't mention the actual substance. Obviously harm minimisation isn't the objective but propaganda and scare tactics. No need to be specific all RC's will fuck u up and give u lumps on yer face! Some of these overdose symptoms seem scary! Too bad 'Research Chems' aren't at all researched apart from by all the trippers of course.

And that e-mail address argument HAHA. Who cares who's buying the product, as long as its legal. However i'm not sure it is. If it's as gay as in Aus that analogues act covers any type of chemical that might get you in any way slightly high due to it being similair to MDMA...

I'm not sure i get this law. Does it mean that chemicals structurally similar to MDMA are illegal or ones with similar effects? Or ones that are precursers(sp?) or can be made into MDMA? Or am i missing something completely?

It all just seems like an easy way to categorise any chemicals that ppl might use to enlighten their minds in some way and finally revolt and overthrow these totalitarian governments. I wonder why those in power have a problem with [some] drugs :rolleyes:

I agree. I'm sick of people selling RC's as other things. They don't realize how dangerous this is. When I take LSD, I often take it in unusually large amounts. Just imagine if I thought it was LSD, took a whole buttload of it, and died. That would be bad. There's also the issue of mixing drugs. I know about the drug interactions of LSD and MDMA. What if I assumed that this was what I actually was sold, and mixed with other things? How safe can that be.

On the other hand, I do think that adults should be allowed to engage in whatever mind altering substances they want to. I guess I don't really know what the right answer is.

So are people still ordering or what?

I'd be worried that i'd send money and not recieve the product. I can't imagine that any other company would take the risk after this bust.
