Phenylpropanolamine? P2P or different? I assume it was going to be used to cook amps?

Also, Carey's word couldn't mean much in court, he gave a character reference for Jason Moran =D

Drug charge brother a hero, Carey tells court
June 2, 2010 - 3:19PM

Former AFL star Wayne Carey has told a court his brother, who pleaded guilty to a drugs-related charge, is his hero.

Kevin Carey, 48, known as Dick, pleaded guilty in the Victorian County Court today to one count of attempting to possess a border controlled precursor.

The precursor, phenylpropanolamine, arrived in Sydney from Johannesburg, South Africa on June 25 last year concealed in multi-threaded rollers used for cricket pitches.

The rollers were intercepted by customs and the substance removed.

Carey was asked by associates to drive the rollers to Melbourne.

He agreed and set off on July 1.

He was arrested at his son's Moonee Ponds home a day later.

The court was told Wayne Carey was 13 years old when he went to live with Dick in Adelaide for several years.

Dick was Wayne's manager when he moved to Melbourne from Adelaide at aged 16 to play with the North Melbourne Football Club.

Wayne credited his footballing achievements to the support of his older brother.

"From a young age Dick was my hero," Wayne Carey told the court.

"He has always been a disciplinary and if it wasn't for him I don't think I would have been the footballer I was."

Carey's lawyer Sergio Petrovich said his client was not completely aware what he was doing was illegal until he was on the road to Melbourne.

The Crown did not oppose the imposition of a wholly suspended sentence.

Judge Rachelle Lewitan extended Carey's bail and will sentence to him on a date to be fixed.

I wonder if this was a one off. If not, then perhaps there's been more amphetamine (as opposed to meth) getting around than some people may have realised.
 
What was being sold as "speed" earlier in the decade i was sure was amphetamine... As ice came past me about 2006 and it defiantly was a different high.

Then at some point i read the nanna thread and was totally confused.

Were you smoking the ice, as opposed to eating/snorting?

I find ROA affects the high methamp provides to a degree. The faster ROA's have much more of a head rush, with the slower ROA's giving a more visceral body charge.

For those interested, its not P2P. Its analogous to pseudoephedrine/ephedrine as a precursor to meth. Its ephedrine without a methyl group on the nitrogen and is a precursor to amp.

P2P is phenyl-2-propanone (aka Phenylacetone), precursor to both methamp and amp
 
Like Cokehead Carey was gonna go badmouthing his brother.... please...

proper speed definitely provides more of a visceral body charge, as Crankinit puts it.... even IVed... have not seen it for almost 3 years though, and I genuinely doubt that those with the capacity to make it could be bothered to then go on & sell it nowadays
 
I had also heard Carey gave character witness for Moran, I don't even remember where I heard/read this, I always believed it was true but who knows really. Either way his character reference wont mean shit for his brother after all the shit he has got in himself and it seems like Kevin Carey was caught red handed anyway so I don't see the point in it. It is pretty obvious someones brother is going to give them a good character reference.
 
It definitely IS true, Andrew Rule and John Silvester don't make stuff up ;) And anyone looking for a "credible" source for their own eyes can go to the Crikey link in that google search.
