Is anyone familiar with the "gathering" process that some drug dealers use(especially for meth)?

What the dealers will do is a process called smurfing. Since the states that will still sell you psuedophedrine without taking your name down will only sell a few boxes at a time, they will hire a bunch of addicts to go all over town and buy up the pills. They usually pay them with the finished product for thier time.

These addicts will use anything they can convert, steal, or make to use their drugs.  Almost anything could be converted into a pipe.  \nI hope you never find out.  Take care of yourself.

Sounds like somebody is going into the drug trade.  Try a head shop.

They are coming down hard in the War on Drugs. I would have to say it is a Fifth Degree Possession charge. Since they are a first time offender the punishment shouldn't be that stiff. Even an empty baggy with traces of an illegal drug is considered a small amount. Residue on a scale is also considered a small amount. My buddy had just gotten out of jail after 4 months and didn't realize there was a leftover empty baggy in her purse from months before. She got pulled over on a routine traffic stop. Since she was on probation that gave them a right to search. They found the empty baggy with traces on it. I write to her in prison now.

dirty money (made illegally...drugs, guns, sex, etc.) is sneaked into the accounts of a clean operation...any legal business will do...and that's how dirty money is made clean.\nIt disguises the real source of the income.  When an organization needs a lot of dirty money laundered, they will usually have their own legit front to do the laundering.

In my youth I did. It wasn't the same kind of "crack meth" it is today, tho. We called it speed because you would be "up" and at em for 24 hours with one snootful.\n\nWhen i watched a friend grab a needle and start to shoot up, I walked. Never came close to it again.\n\nI agree with you. Why would anyone try these new "concentrated" versions of these drugs?\n\nThank God He saved me.

I believe all of it requires processing , doesn't it? Meth has to be the worse for the required chems to make it and the nasty by products, stuff like muriatic acid , MEK (methyl ethyl keytone) red phosphorous , acetone , starter fluid , etc.

not really,  pot, crack, meth alot depends on the type of client, neighbor you live in, but then people in all levels use all types of drugs,  And often drug dealers are a one stop shop, selling all types ( if someone wants it, they normaly get it)

I have no idea what your question is but every highway patrolman in our state have machines that locate large sums of money in cars. They are used to locate drug money. That is what the strips in large bills are for.

This means that a drug dealer lives in that house.  I dont think people still do this.  You already knew the answer to this question before you asked, didnt you?

I am assuming you don't really want to know how to do it, but to launder money is to disguise where it came from.  Think of it like this: Drug dealer makes $20,000 of the street.  That is dirty money because it comes from illegal activity.  Now if he also owned a gas station, and made the money look like it came from profits of the gas station, then he has made the money clean, that is coming from a legitimate source.  The true origination of the money has been hidden, that is the goal of money laundering, and an overly simplified method explanation of how it is done, but I think it answers your question.

Drug treatment centers are a joke.  Most dopers use these as a network to score more dope.  Once a doper, always a doper.

According to the DEA, the drug seizers for marijuana from jan. 05 to sept. 05 was 71.8%. However, I was unable to find arrest rates because most stats are a combination of marijuana, cocaine, heroin, meth, and various other drugs (no seperate numbers).\n\nHmmm. I wonder why?

You don't say where you are, so it's difficult to give you a really decent answer (Yahoo Answers has people from all over the world).\n\nHowever, if you were in California, and if you were dealing with me, this is the deal we'd probably make:\n\nI would be more than willing to work with you initially.  However, just you saying someone is dealing/cooking meth does not make it so.  For me to prove my case in front of a judge or a jury, I need evidence, and what you say is normally not evidence, depending on several things.  Typically, to put together a decent case on a meth cook requires eyewitness testimony, along with physical evidence.  To put together a decent sales case would require proof of sales and sufficient quantities of meth to show sales.  Sales to an undercover cop would be outstanding...if you knew of a way to arrange the deal between the undercover and the seller/cooker.\n\nI would not be able to bargain with you about the people you care about because if they got caught with something, that's their bargain to make, not yours.  I might be willing to agree not to intentionally seek those people out, but I repeat; I *might* be willing to make that agreement.  It's a risk you will take when you deal with the police that the names of people you give up might be caught up in the whole deal.\n\nThere is some risk in doing something like this that the crook will find out you did.  There are also ways to prevent that from happening.\n\nI do not recommend going through an attorney unless you are made of money.  If you do not currently have a criminal case pending in the system, and do not have a public defender for that case, you will have to pay an attorney to do the things that have been suggested here.  My opinion: it's not productive.\n\nI also strongly advise against any type of anonymous reporting program, as the information you provide might be useless without further questioning and clarification and if the police don't have a way to talk to you, your efforts might end up being for nothing.  If you can find such a program that allows for confidential, anonymous and *timely* discussion back and forth between you and the police, go for it...that would work well, although I'm not aware of any such program.\n\nDespite what's been said here, you need to talk to a narcotics investigator.  Call one near you, and without giving any names, just describe the circumstances you want to talk about.  It could be that what you know isn't sufficient for law enforcement in your state to act on, and they would require more from you.  It could be that, depending on what kind of information you're able to provide, you'd have just the right amount of information at just the right time to be able to make a difference. \n\nYou want to make that difference?  You need to talk to a narc investigator.  Involving anyone else only makes it harder to deal with and confuses things more than need be.  The problem here is that you're dealing with a lot of different dynamics, and you really need to be able to talk to an investigator to get things hammered out as much as possible. \n\nYou don't hate meth any more than I do.  I will do anything I can to help you with this and for what it's worth, you have my word that I would not attempt any legal manuevering to discover your location or identity (there are those here who will tell you I'm lying...it's your choice to believe me or not).
