Don't know who actually arrested him. The friend said that John believes he was set up by a DEA agent who he had talked to on Mesomorphosis a while back. | ||

Not saying you're wrong MR H, but at the same time there's been a certain ahole on meso thats been putting up BS post with regards to alot of different good guys. I'd prolly wait another few days to see if wiseguy pops up and says if it is BS or not. Or if know for 100%, then just ignore my post, I hope he'll be able to beat it or at least not have to long a sentence. JW | ||

Interesting 2Thick...I talk to this guy regulary, if that wasn't the case I'd call BS on his part. Now my opinion is slightly swaying. Anyways, I contacted him and hopefully it's just another case of some Meso asshole kidding around. | ||

I have always been under the impression that if the reciever is American then they can get popped, and if the sender is foreign it is difficult for our USA authorities to do anything. I thought it was a joint effort and a lot of red tape to get the sending country's authorities to bust the guy. I could be wrong though. ------------------ | ||

Anyone know about MP5s post? If the receiver is American can the sender get popped? | ||

I think that he is saying that if the receiver is American then the receiver can get popped, not the sender. He's saying that it is very difficult for the US to get the sender, unless we do some Noreiga shit. ------------------ | ||

Yeah, that is what I meant. let's say Joe Blow from Egypt sends me some gear. I get popped and he probably won't, even if you ratted him out the USA would have a hard time doing anything since he is in another country. I am thinking the dealer would have to be ratted out by someone in his/her country. ------------------ [This message has been edited by MP5 (edited January 08, 2001).] | ||

Remember, while the DEA is an American police force, they can have jurisdiction in any country where they have agreements. Also, remember that importing drugs to the US is a crime against the US, not just by the person recieving but also sending. So, that changes the game a lot. Lastly, the Customs police for the US have jurisdiction much broader. And the drug dealers are trying to import illegal merchandise into the US. So, again they can invetigate and aprehend the offender. The only thing they need is to prove to the foreign authorities that the charges are valid and get permission to arrest themselves or have the foreign police pick the offender up and then ship him back. | ||

The fact is the feds dont like people who make money and dont pay taxes on it. Most of these guys are on power trips and the last thing that they like to see is some 24 year old kid, driving a bmw with some hot chick in the front seat and with no job. They dont make the kind of money that alot of dealers make and it pisses them off. Cops use their uniforms/Guns to show power--When they see a 240 pound 21 year old kid driving a bmw with no job, I think it becomes more of a jealousy thing to some of these guys. | ||

>According to international law, the DEA has >no jurisdiction in Europe (or even Canada). >I don't see how one source was enough for >the US to spend all that money. This is technically correct, however there are other ways that DEA can utilize to shutdown pharmacies or dealers. Many will remember B. Mougios of Greece. This pharmacy was in business for a long time and many Americans bought their medication from this pharmacy. I believe most of the medication that was sold were of the 'smart drug' variety. However Mougios carried a large selection of anabolics. In late 1996, Mougios was shutdown. The rumor out of Greece was that after reading about this pharmacy in MM2K, several DEA agents made a trip to Greece and had a discussion with Greek officials. Well, the end result was that Mougios was arrested and a large sum of cash and international money orders were seized. I believe the charge was selling prescription medication without a valid prescription. This is precisely the reason that another popular mail order Greek pharmacy strictly requires a prescription for anabolics. A few years later I read an interview with a DEA agent in regards to issue of anabolic steroids in Flex. He stated that by threatening to withhold U.S. aid, DEA usually gets full cooperation from foreign governments in regards to curbing foreign pharmacies from selling prescription drugs to U.S. citizens. |
