‘Angel dust’ maker gets jail
PA Auckland A self-taught chemist who used his equipment, experience and expertise to manufacture the hallucinogenic drug, “Angel dust,” was yesterday sentenced to four years jail and fined $5OOO. Mr Justice Casey, in the High Court at Auckland, said that Bruce Douglas Cameron, aged 32, of Sandringham, told police that cigarettes laced with the drug “were selling like hot cakes.” Cameron was found guilty after a four-day trial of manufacturing phencyclidine and possessing it for the purposes of supply last October.
