Did someone large recently get busted in the LSD network?

I've been hearing rumors for weeks about another drought coming up, and how someone from the "family" got busted recently so certain regions are about to go dry. can anyone verify this, or is it just drug dealers making shit up to create demand for their product?

I certainly can't verify it but I also certainly don't doubt it. Sorry that wasn't much help but about 6 months ago I had all the LSD I wanted, now when I'm looking for some I can't find any.

I don't know if this is related at all, but this kid here was supposed to be getting 100 hits a little over a week ago but when I talked to him yesterday he said the guy he was getting it from was busted.

http://www.usdoj.gov/dea/pubs/states/newsrel/sanfran120307.html Got busted with 20 grams, which doesn't seem like a lot in the national LSD game, but its deeper than that. People don't just sell 5 grams of crystal to just anyone.

i'm guessing after that bust, the DEA did a bit of searching to find some large-scale cats etc.
fuck, i hope the ring doesnt go down

there's always busts going on, a reason for a dry patch in your area is because 'your guy's guy' doesnt have any or is out of town, thus creating a shortage for a lot of people.
i experience this bullshit all the time, which is why it's handy to have many suppliers

Here, learn to look at the headlines on the front page while they're there.
Chances are, if this guy was running money from one operation, he's got hands in others as well, and he probably spilled something about it.

I don't think they are related, that was over 5 years ago and involved money laundering. Also, I don't even think Pickard was family at the point in which he got busted.

No, that article is talking about a recent arrest of a guy who moves money for big-time LSD operations. This article is from last month. There's plenty of probability that this guy has worked with more than one LSD production op, especially considering the one he'd been working with originally got busted.
Money launderers are just a part of operating on huge scale like that, and when they get popped, because they're usually upper-class whites who want to spend as little time in prison as possible, they rat easily. I wouldn't be surprised if this guy gave up a new list of names.

Ok... first off, if the bust is in the area which it is in... I highly doubt that anyone in that network "spilled the beans" about anything. More likely, is that news trickled down the network and anyone else that is involved higher up is laying low for a bit to make sure everything is alright.
What is a bit scary though is that somebody that high in the network is selling 5 grams of crystal to undercover agents. They must either be way in the game and working their way up undercover as fuck, or its some dumb kid with a ton of money that knows some people.

Operation, no proof that he had any other ties with other LSD operations. There are a shit ton of people that can launder money as well, over a trillion dollars a year gets laundered, its not like theres only 2 different people that can do it. Especially considering Pickard wasn't family first off, why would they use the same connections? LSD will be around again, that void in the market won't remain forever, too much money to be made. I read the article btw.

I wish some of these police or politicians actually stopped to think "What exactly are we doing? Is it really helping anyone? Is LSD really a reason to lock people away in jail?"
It's like some incredibly ignorant and prejudaced person long ago made the rules to the stupidest cops and robbers game ever and people have been playing blindly for decades even though all reason and evidence show that it doesn't make any sense at all. I really wonder if these thousands or even millions of people working in the justice system ever think about the fact that they are destroying lives, putting harmless people away for a drug that doesn't kill people, isn't toxic, isn't addictive and the average person probobly wouldn't want to take.
I mean what do those agents think, "Yeah, we just took a bunch of nasty LSD of the streets and know the world is saved! Go team!"? There's probobly plenty on the shroomery, and I wonder if they even think at all when they read our posts beyond trying find out how to seize more drugs and lock away more hippies.
-------------------- 1. "After an hour I wasn't feeling anything so I decided to take another..." 2. "We were feeling pretty good so we decided to smoke a few bowls..." 3. "I had to be real quiet because my parents were asleep upstairs..."
