New Mexico high school chemistry teacher pleads guilty to making meth - Sensationalist Headlines

[quote]LAS CRUCES, N.M. — A former science teacher in New Mexico manufactures methamphetamine. Sound familiar? The 3rd Judicial District Attorney’s Office announced Tuesday that John W. Gose, who taught science at schools in Las Cruces and El Paso, pleaded guilty to charges that he manufactured and possessed methamphetamine. Gose, 56, of San Miguel, pleaded guilty to two counts of trafficking methamphetamine by manufacturing and one count each of possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. He entered the pleas before state District Judge Fernando R. Macias in 3rd Judicial District Court in Las Cruces. Gose was arrested on Oct. 2, 2016, during a traffic stop in Las Cruces. During the stop, police officers discovered a white Styrofoam ice chest that contained glassware, rubber tubing and chemicals, which a lab later confirmed can be used to manufacture methamphetamine. Investigators subsequently searched Gose’s property and found additional chemicals and supplies that suggested he was manufacturing methamphetamine. Authorities determined that Gose was in possession of the ingredients necessary to yield at least one pound of methamphetamine, which has an estimated street value of $44,800.[/quote] [url]https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2017/05/02/breaking-bad-ex-science-teacher-new-mexico-pleads-guilty-manufacturing-meth/101219822/[/url]

Conan was talking about this during his monolouge recently and he mentioned that, "he faces up to 25 years in prison, and up to 12 emmy awards"

Caught out on a traffic stop. That's shit odds. Would love more details on why they searched him. Did he just have all this shit sitting out on the seat in his car?

Caught during a traffic stop? That's methed up.

by night he cooked meth, by day he taught the scientific meth-od

There is a bunch of stuff that does not go together in a box... for instance: Glassware, toluene, heet, batteries, 2L bottles with holes and tubes in the cap, rock salt, coffee filters, coffee grinder, lye, fire extinguishers, and some more. A normal person would have a hard time accidentally putting some or all of that shit into one box. If you are in a high meth area, too theft of anhydrous stored in propane tanks (or fire extinguishers) is a huge give away.

No no you're supposed to SELL the meth not take it! He has it all backwards!

Well, New Mexico is officially famous for tweakers. You did it guys. Good job. Seriously, we get headlines for the weirdest shit anymore. First it was the school that was shut down because of a three-foot long burrito, then it was the kid who entered a relationship with him mom who gave him up for adoption when he wasn't even a year old. :disgust:
