First DMT seizure by police in Western Australia

December 4, 2008

WA POLICE have made what is thought to be WA's first seizure of the hallucinogenic drug DMT, and arrested three men.

 

Police yesterday seized two grams of the drug, known as dimethyltryptamine, and arrested three men after raiding two properties in Denmark and Walpole, in the South of WA.

 

Police were called into investigate after a patient was admitted to Denmark Hospital with a suspected drug overdose of the drug.

 

"We believe this may be the first seizure of DMT by police in WA . . . And we also believe it is the first arrest as a result of this drug," Denmark Sergeant Dave Dench told PerthNow this afternoon.

 

"This is new (to WA). It's not new to the world. . . it's been used for 300 or 400 years overseas, but it's new to WA. We have never come across this in WA before.

 

``Even though we've only seized 2 grams, the fact that we've locked up three men, we believe we've put quite a dint in the potential for this drug to hit Denmark in large quantities."

 

DMT is extracted from the bark of certain trees and is manufactured during a "complex cooking process". Once "cooked", the yellow-coloured drug takes a crystalline or powder form. It is usually smoked, sometimes by lacing cannabis with the drug, police say.

 

Sgt Dench said intelligence suggested that the drug was being sold in 1 gram packages for $200.

 

He said chemists believed that each "dose" was 15 to 25 mg.

 

"Our concern is that if someone who hasn't taken the drug before and doesn't know anything about it and takes 1 gram, which is way over the dosage that chemists recommend is sufficient, then it may potentially have some major health effects for them."

 

He said police did not have any evidence that the drug, which is believed to have originated in South America, had been manufactured in the South West or from local trees.

 

"There are about six or seven types of tree that this substance can be extracted from....But we don't have any direct intelligence to suggest it's been cooked locally," he said.

 

A 25-year-old Walpole man will be charged by summons with supplying a prohibited drug (DMT), possessing a prohibited drug (DMT) and one count of possessing cannabis.

 

A 22-year-old man from Denmark will be charged by summons with one count of possessing a prohibited drug (DMT) and possessing a smoking implement.

 

The third man, a 23-year-old from Denmark, will be charged by summons for possessing cannabis and possessing a smoking implement.

 

The three men will appear in Albany Magistrates Court in January.

They've never come across it before, yet they can't help themselves when it comes to dribbling shit.

Self praise is usually no recommendation :peace:

The stuff has been in WA for years, i listned to the report on the news, the cops had no idea what they were on about, they were calling it a "deadly drug" "very dangerous" its actually pretty safe as far a hallucinogens go because it only lasts for about 10 mins.

your right there bufo, The boys in blue are getting dribble all down their nice uniforms.

Thats crap, Just like their $10 000 a pound pot busts, a good trip takes about 40mg, 50mg or more is the madness though :peace: .

Hey Paulshop, 2g of LSD-25 will make you 2 million trips , at $5 each , thats 10 million dollars.

2g of Fentanyl will make 200g high grade synthetic heroin.

I saw on landline ,a couple of weeks ago, that one farm , daly river region , was spending a million dollars a year , to control Mimosa Hostilis ,the root bark of which is a major source of DMT. I dunno if Daly river is in nt or wa , but there is a ton of it there for the taking by an industrious person.

Made me laugh too with the shit they drible.They said they had made a major bust of a dangerous new designer drug.LMAO

2 went to hospital after taking a little too much and having the alien battlestar gallatica going on in their minds reality.

Never heard anymore but from the ages of the people arrested me thinks uni students or other experimenters stumbled across the recipe and decided to go for broke.$200 a gram is hell cheap if I had of of known I would have bought the lot from them :thumbsup:.
