Sheriff:Teen high on designer drug smashes through Stuart home’s window
Palm Beach Post ^ | Aug 28, 2016 | John Pacenti and Chelsea Todaro

For the second time in two weeks, there’s been a vicious, random attack in Martin County, in this case by a 19-year-old man who attacked two people in their Stuart home — exhibiting “extreme strength and a high tolerance to pain” after smashing through a glass window early Sunday morning.

But unlike the first incident on Aug. 15, in which authorities say Austin Harrouff, also 19, stabbed a couple to death in their garage, biting one victim severely, the Martin County Sheriff’s Office has the illicit drugs the alleged intruder took along with a friend.

The friend of the suspect in Sunday’s alleged attack told investigators that the two took LSD and a bath salt known as methylone, Snyder said. The attacker told the victims he was on flakka, Snyder said. The sheriff said the suspect had no criminal record.

Deputies were able to control him, but he was “too violent to be placed in the rescue helicopter.”

“extreme strength and a high tolerance to pain”

Sounds similar to what Angel Dust did.

A few weeks ago a couple were stabbed to death. When police arrived he was eating the face off one of them. It took multiple cops to control him because of his strength and indifference to pain. In this current case one of the victims hit him in the head with a baseball bat while the other victim was wrestling him to the floor, it had no effect.

This stuff is bad news.

It obviously can cause a powerful psychosis. Some drugs that act on the amygdala can cause violent behavior, maybe this is one of them.

If you go to youtube and look for flakka news videos you’ll see the disturbing results of this drug.

The attacker was a college kid.

The attacker’s friend took the same drug and did not have this psychotic reaction. The most likely reason is that the dosage control at the manufacturer is very poor. A far less likely reason is that the drug can have wildly different effects on different people.

Another possibility is that the two got pills from different batches which could be slightly different chemically. These drug manufacturers are not known for quality control.

But the most scary thing about this is that these young people are willing lab rats for the people selling this stuff. They paying for the privilege of consuming experimental drugs.

They are told they are getting LSD or Ecstasy but they really don’t know.

This kind of thing should be really be frightening to those of us that are sending our kids off to college. These colleges have mandatory classes for new students on sexual harassment and minority sensitivity but how about classes on avoiding mind altering drugs?

Well, that can be fixed.

The photo in the article shows a pill that looks like it was made in a garage.

If it was made in a place similar to a meth lab it is more likely a trailer in one of Florida’s swamps.

And if the police were forced to shoot him to stop him, he would have been “unarmed”.

Wait till the right(wrong) demographic starts using this regularly...

Tasers won’t help much either. True zombie stuff (More Day Z then Walking Dead).

Exactly.. a bullet to the head would save taxpayers millions in trial and incarceration cost.

For years I have trained placing two in the chest and one in the head.

Looks like it is time to train knee cap, chest, head.

Bath salts are the street name for a designer drug that is anything but for a soothing soak.

“One of the occupants of this house was a man in his 30s who outweighed this 19-year-old by a hundred pounds and he could not get him under control,” Snyder said. “They fought from one end of the house to the other.”

Meanwhile, the woman who lived in the house hit the intruder several times with a baseball bat to no avail.

That is unreal.

You can buy pill presses on Amazon.

They look like tiny olive or grape presses, and they make one pill at a time.

The ones I am familiar with are used to make hash from whatever the raw material of hash is.

Stories like this always remind me of watching Supernatural when a demon takes possession of someone.

These inorganic laboratory experiments/creations pick the locks and force open by random chance inner doors and portals to the good, the bad and the darkest ugly, some that should never, ever be opened.

And once opened, each door must close in its own time, and who knows what sort of critter might wander through that opened inner portal in the meantime.

And then, what? How do you get rid of 'it'? How do you know it's gone?
