Drug sweep yields weed, coke, toad [KS]
    #7612926 - 11/08/07 09:38 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

'Operation: Bad Candy" rounds up 36 for drug possession, distribution
November 8, 2007 - Liberty Tribune

After a Northland drug sweep last week, a law enforcement agency has a toad in protective custody.

And "toad" is not a euphemism for "a really bad guy who deals drugs."

It's a little guy who is better known as the Sonoran Desert toad or Colorado River toad. He and his relatives have gained notoriety among certain circles because they secrete venom on their backs when they become angry or frightened, venom that contains a hallucinogen called bufotenine.

That hallucinogen, which is illegal, has had individuals go to elaborate lengths to partake in a little "toad smoking," said Clay County Prosecuting Attorney Dan White.

Some brave souls used to experiment with the extremely dangerous practice of "toad licking," but toad smoking is considered a better alternative because a person heats the frogs' venom, which breaks down the toxins and retains the hallucinogen, White said. The hallucinogen is then dried and smoked.

Local law enforcement authorities found the frog in the possession of David S. Theiss, 21, of Kansas City North and arrested him for possession of a controlled substance, White said.

Theiss was one of 61 Northland individuals recently targeted in "Operation: Bad Candy," the culmination of an almost two-year undercover operation of the Clay County Drug Task Force.

More than 50 officers — including those from the Clay County Sheriff's Office, Missouri State Highway Patrol and police departments in Liberty, Pleasant Valley, North Kansas City, Gladstone, Kearney and Smithville — met at 4:30 a.m. Oct. 31 at the Shoal Creek Patrol Division for a briefing and to receive arrest warrants.

The officers then teamed up and swept the Northland, knocking on doors in the early hours of the morning and surprising suspected drug dealers, Clay County Sheriff Paul Vescovo said.

By about 10 a.m. that day, they had taken 30 into custody, Vescovo said. As of Friday of last week, that number had increased to 36.

"Normally I'm not too keen on getting out of bed at 3 in the morning," he said on the day of the sting. "But I certainly liked doing it today. As a sheriff, you look forward to these types of events. It shows our public that we're serious about drugs and that all of our area law enforcement agencies are committed to working together for a common effort."

White said arrests were mainly for possession or delivery of marijuana, methamphetamine or cocaine.

He said he considered "Operation: Bad Candy" a success.

"When you're dealing with these cases, it's tough because a lot of them know each other," White said. "If you go to one person's house, it can be piecemeal to get the others in custody because it doesn't take long for the word to get out.

"But to get 30 in just a few hours, that's doing very well. Drugs have a presence in the Northland, but we're all doing our best to combat it."

Because we need to destroy those dangerous toads and flowers, else they will undermine our security..

the article makes it sound like all he did was own a frog? that doesn't sound right. those frogs are legal to buy and sell i'm pretty sure.

Wow. Illegal drugs must be really, really dangerous since they let illegal drug activity continue unchecked for two years while they worked their undercover operation. I wonder how the public would react if they let a serial rapist continue raping women for two years while they investigated.

I couldn't have said it better Seuss. The same thing happened to me, took them nearly two years to bust me for selling.

Fuck the police, they should be going after the real criminals. Imagine if they put all that energy in tracking down rapists and shit.....but no, they get enjoyment going to supposed dealers at 3 in the morning. I bet they think they are on the cutting edge finding toads and stuff.
I sure dont see an end to this ridiculus drug war anytime soon. California might be a little more progressive, but it is a trend that will take a 100 years to get over to the bible belt.
Fuck the drug war
Fuck those ice smokin hipocritical cops
If you have nothing better to do all day than get high, I dont see how its any different than masterbation or self-gratification.
I think our economy would collapse if everybody stopped buying any kind of drug all at once.
A lot of these ass-holes would be out of a fucking job !! :thebird:  :thebird:

It does. Their venom contains that and bufotenine. But it's the DMT that people are really after, not bufotenine. It's just another sadly misinformed article, that's all.

Sometimes I think these articles put inaccuracies in there on purpose. It's like they don't want word about DMT getting out too much or something. Oh well. Too late for that I guess.

It's weird. It seems as if law enforcement cultivates the drug scene only to be heroes at harvest.

yes it is the 5-methoxy-dimethyltryptamine their after, not the bufotenin which is 5-hydroxy-dimethyltryptamine, which is present in just about all toad venoms and is scheduled let me add too bufotenin can kill you by constricting your blood vessels and stoping your heart. the colorado river toad and a few other small species have 5-meo-dmt, do not confuse this species with the caine toad bufo marinus which has 5-oh-dmt or bufotenin and bufagins, why they ever scheduled bufotenin is beyond me. no one would use it and it sucks too...

so all of you in possession of toads are going to be in trouble...
BTW is the government going to cut off out heads for possession of endogenously created tryptamines?
