The feds busted a huge operation that was "import[ing] hundreds of millions of dollars in counterfeit goods from China and illegal drugs from Taiwan to the United States." Initially, the fed were just looking at the smuggling of counterfeit goods but then they "uncovered an alleged scheme to import 50 kilograms of crystal methamphetamine. Approximately 1 kilogram of nearly pure crystal meth was purchased from the defendants as part of the operation, which stopped the importation of dozens of additional kilograms of the drug." Unexpected bonus!

Dartmouth Grad Student Busted For Possible Meth Lab
It's yet another Ivy League drug case! Proving that the pressure to pay student loans has become absolutely unbearable, a Dartmouth graduate was charged with attempted manufacture of methamphetamine after police raided his apartment and found what they believe to be a meth lab. 28-year-old chemistry student (were you expecting medieval literature?) Randy Lambreghts was narced out by his roommate who "feared" for his "mental and physical health," the Daily News reports. Everybody knows that when there's a sock on the doorknob, that means "cooking crystal meth," and you must leave them be.
Cameron Douglas' Sentencing Will Be Public
Despite a plea for Cameron Douglas' April 20th sentencing to be private, a judge has ruled that both the sentencing and a plea for leniency from Michael Douglas must be kept public. Douglas has already been denied house arrest for dealing crystal meth. He pleaded guilty to the charge and now faces a minimum of 10 years in prison. No word yet on how his relationship with Kelly "Toothbrush Smuggler" Sott is going.
Cameron Douglas Will Get 10+ Years For Trafficking
Cameron Douglas, the 31-year-old son of actor Michael, is a big time crystal meth dealer—just last year being busted with half a pound of the stuff at the Gansevoort Hotel (where he was living on his father's tab). Originally placed under house arrest, he was brought behind bars once his girlfriend Kelly Sott was caught smuggling heroin to his home in an electric toothbrush. Now the actor/deejay is readying for his sentencing on April 27th—the NY Post reports he faces a minimum 10 years behind bars. Is life imitating art for Michael Douglas? Can he expect to find bunnies boiling in his brownstone next?
Cameron Douglas's Meth Drama Continues
Michael Douglas has undoubtedly reprised his Falling Down role by now; his son Cameron has been busted for being a big time crystal meth dealer, moving "pounds" of the drug since 2006, according to TMZ. The site reports that he faces 10 years to life in prison, and "According to his federal complaint filed in New York, DEA agents claim they ran a 3-year investigation, proving the 30-year-old actor sold 'multiple pounds' of crystal meth to several people—many of whom are now cooperating in the prosecution of Douglas." He's been charged with one count of possession with intent to distribute 500 grams or more of crystal meth, and also one count with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of "ice"—which for the non-drug savy is the purest form of meth. When he was busted in NYC, he was accepting $15,000 in cash in exchange for a promise to deliver a half pound of crystal meth, which the buyer referred to as "bath salts." Douglas told him, "I thought you would like them my friend ... I was so excited for you to take a bath and see for yourself."
Michael Douglas's Son Arrested With Crystal Meth
Last night TMZ reported that Cameron Douglas (spawn of Michael) was arrested in NYC for "possession of methamphetamines with the intent to distribute." Indeed, the Post later reported that the 30-year-old was busted by a DEA task force at the Gansevoort Hotel—and it turned out he was holding around a half-a-pound of crystal meth. They also believe he already sold $18,000 worth (it goes for $80/gram). This isn't the first time Douglas has been busted, either; in 2007 he was charged "with felony possession of a controlled substance after cops found a syringe with liquid cocaine in a car he was in."
