Meth-from-urine lab busted in east Tennessee

CLINTON, Tenn. (AP) — Law enforcement officers in east Tennessee say they have so far found three methamphetamine operations that extract the illegal drug from urine in Anderson County.

Chief Deputy Mark Lucas said the department got a tip that led to a raid Thursday, resulting in drug charges against Rickie Jack Harber, 47.

Deputies found meth-making components and 144 gallons of urine, stored in plastic bottles, Lucas said.

The department reports the lab is the third, but largest such operation it has found, according to The Knoxville News-Sentinel.

 

Harber was charged with promotion of methamphetamine manufacture and is held in lieu of $200,000 bond.

 

Tennessee Methamphetamine Task Force director Tommy Farmer said labs that use the urine of meth users to make the drug are a ‘‘very infrequent thing.’’

 

‘‘We have had a couple’’ in southeast Tennessee, he said.

 

Farmer said law enforcement officers in some communities have discovered bottles of urine without realizing it is used to make the addictive stimulant.

 

Farmer said such labs are ‘‘pretty disgusting’’ but they show what meth addicts will resort to if they can’t otherwise get the drug that is usually made by cooking toxic chemicals and decongestant products that are now restricted.

 

He said meth users when arrested are frequently quarantined so others in custody won’t drink their urine.

 

‘‘It goes to show that once you get hooked, it’s so addictive. It’s not going to stop at anything,’’ Farmer said.
