I know that immigration at the airport does not have time to screen every luggage for narcotics. For police officers, if you stop somebody and you see a lot of vitamin tablets as well as the canister that it came in. Would you suspect that they contain drugs? The drug industry is growing very large now and they are finding better ways to conceal illegal drugs. Say putting illegal drugs such as cocaine in a labeled vitamin tablet and then putting tablets into a canister that is labeled and looks professional, would this not be a good way to conceal drugs?

Ecstacy has a lot of shapes and form and a lot of pills mimic those of actual medication. Would customs or police really take the time to send it through the lab if you decided it was inconclusive upon visual inspection that it was a narcotic or not?

Hehehehe. I'm not going to tell you what I know about drugs so you can hide them better! :D

Good call.

I'm not looking for answers how to hide them better. I just want to know is if putting them in vitamin pills/tablets and putting them in a professional label one of them. I wanted to know if this is common.

Besides, I know cops are trained to how to spot them anyways so if this is true, why not just tell me since it won't trick you anyways.

And I told you, I'm not saying whether we know it's common or not. The less you know about this, the better.

Try it, and see what happens. :rolleyes:

Anyways, forget the question. I think it's best to buy a drug test kit. Do you know where they sell these as in testing for certain drugs? For example, opening a vitamin tablet and spread the powder on the table and using tools to test for what drugs are in it.

Why do you need a drug test kit? If you're buying your drugs from a pharmacist, you don't need it.

A drug test kit would only aid those who purchase illicit drugs, so I'm not teling you that either.

You have to understand why it would seem odd to us that you would come onto a police forum and start a thread asking hiding drugs on your second post.

And no, I don't know where they sell drug test kits. I just know we got them.

can't edit but mean to say: ...asking ABOUT hiding drugs on your second posts.

Gosh dang it: ..."MEANT" to say.

I'm sorry if you felt that I wanted to "outsmart" the police or to that nature.

I know the police have drug test kits and they use it if they suspect a person is suspected of having illegal drugs.

A drug test kit would be very helpful in detecting drugs and keeping everything confidential such that if your child is suspected to having done drugs and you're not sure about it, then a drug test kit could either give your peace of mind or the opposite. So if anyone knows where to purchase the kit in california, please notify me.

No, police would never suspect anyone would do anything like trying to conceal the drugs as they were smuggling them in. They would especially be unlikely to suspect that someone who was so health concious that they just had to bring a years supply of vitamins with them while on a one week trip would try and substitute some drug for the pills.

Also, police K-9's can't smell illegal drugs when they're in those capsules. Don't tell the bad guys.

Your questions seem to ilicit responses that would make us to belive you are engaged in illegal activity.

This type of activity is NOT permited on this board and thus you have received negative rep.

That's fine, I understand about the suspicion. Suspicion is sometimes the only lead that police have. My original purpose in this post was to see if people put drugs in capsules in hope to hide it from the police/immigration/government agencies because it sounds trivial.

You watch too much tv, lad....

Plainclothes Cops aren't that good, just keep that in mind...all you have to do is say, "I don't have any drugs", and they'll send you on your marry way...it's not like they're trained and experienced in detecting the methods of drug traffickers.

So fire away, put the dope in a medicine bottle...they've never heard of that one before.

I was wondering why he had 2 red squares already, then I read this thread.

Here comes the good part. It does not have to be real drugs for me to charge you.

Can you say simulated controlled substance? I knew you could.:D

All the posts put together re vehicle capability, swat weapons in cars, concealing drugs? Makes one wonder why. Who's that knocking on his door with the 12lb key???????

I found a bunch of crack in a tylenol bottle once.....but since the label said "Tylenol" I had to release the suspect as Tylenol is legal to possess in California.

Wouldn't want to violate their civil rights when the bottle says, "Tylenol"...

Tylenol??!!... that's some nasty stuff. Remember back in the early/mid 80's when one dose of Tylenol was killing people?
