Drug dealers looking to bring their wares into the Big Apple have apparently discovered what most New Yorkers already knew: Chinatown buses are the best deal in town. Since last August the (apparently well-named) Golden Horse Tours bus company has been involved in multiple impressively large drug busts, the city's Office of the Special Narcotics Prosecutor says. Naturally, an investigation into the company is now ongoing. more ›

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. more ›

Methamphetamine has reached its lowest popularity among teens in years, according to surveys of eighth, 10th, and 12th graders. The number of high school seniors reporting they used crystal meth in the past year is now at only 1.2 percent. (In 1999, it was 4.7 percent.) Cigarette smoking is also at the lowest point in the survey's history, and cocaine use is down too, but marijuana use was about the same as the previous year: 32.8 percent of 12th graders, 26.7 percent of 10th graders, and 11.8 percent of eighth graders say they've smoked grass. And for the first time this year, the survey measured the non-medical use of Adderall and found that more than 5 percent of 10th and 12th graders were using it (and probably getting straight A's). more ›

Following a heroin delivery via electric toothbrush on Monday, Cameron Douglas has been taken out of his UES house arrest digs, and moved over to the Metropolitan Correctional Center. This is also where his girlfriend Kelly Sott is still being held, after making the delivery. more ›

The mystery of how Cameron Douglas's girlfriend actually thought it was a good idea to bring heroin to his meeting with The Man becomes a little bit less mysterious now. The Daily News reports that Douglas was under house arrest in his mom's $9.25M Upper East Side townhouse when girlfriend Kelly Sott (pictured) delivered a toothbrush filled with 19 bags of heroin. A private security guard was suspicious when he heard Douglas on the phone talking about the toothbrush, as he had just gotten one—so when Sott showed up he confiscated it and found the drugs. (Wonder what was in that first toothbrush!) The DEA later arrested Sott at the Hotel Gansevoort where she was staying; "they found heroin, crystal meth and marijuana in her room. She was held without bail after her arrest, and a federal magistrate ordered immediate treatment for heroin addiction and hypertension." Both Sott and Douglas were reportedly strung out when this occurred. more ›

Cameron Douglas is addicted to drugs... well, addicted to trafficking them! The 30-year-old son of Michael Douglas, and his first wife Diandra Luker, was recently busted for dealing crystal meth, and now his girlfriend is joining the club. The NY Post reports that Kelly Sott "was arrested after she tried to smuggle to him 10 bags of heroin—hidden in an electric toothbrush—right in front of prosecutors who are investigating him for drug trafficking." Douglas was in a meeting with the officials in Manhattan yesterday when he asked if he could call his girl to run an errand. Soon enough she was there with the toothbrush, which of course the officials were suspicious of and checked, and now she's being held without bail. Her lawyer said she's in need of treatment for a medical condition: "heroin addiction and hypertension." more ›

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." more ›

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." more ›

During these times of economic downturn, and with cocaine prices on the rise, what's a drug dealer to do? The NY Post reports that NYC dealers have boosted their profits as they're "increasingly turning to crystal meth to peddle in its place." A DEA special agents tells the paper, "[Dealers] are trying to create a market. [We're] afraid of an epidemic similar to the crack epidemic of the '80s." The department has already taken in 14 kilos of meth this year, as compared to the 4 kilos confiscated during all of 2007. more ›

So, CNN personality Richard Quest was arrested early Friday morning for drug possession when police found in Central Park well after the park's 1 a.m. curfew. Sure, the initial reports said Quest told police he was carrying methamphetamime in his pocket, but leave it to the NY Post to add the really detailed details. more ›
