Missing Arizona Couple Found Buried In Neighbor's Yard



Michael and Tina Careccia

[From article]
A missing Phoenix-area couple were killed and buried in the yard of a man who told investigators he was high on methamphetamine when he shot the husband and wife, authorities said Thursday.
The disclosure came after the bodies of Michael Careccia, 44, an airline pilot, and his wife, Tina, 42, an accountant, were discovered on the Maricopa property of suspect Jose Valenzuela.
[. . .]
The couple was reported missing June 22 by Michael Careccia’s son after Tina Careccia didn’t show up at the construction company where she worked.
Authorities went door to door, launched air and ground searches and used dogs to try to track their scent.
Sheriff’s officials served a search warrant Wednesday at Valenzuela’s residence, and deputies were seen digging on the property before the bodies were found.
Valenzuela told investigators that he and the couple have been acquainted for the past two years and used methamphetamine together.

Juan E. Nunez, 37, of New York City, Jose Morales, 43, of Haverstraw, NY, and Alfredo D. Lopez, 33, of Van Nuys, Calif., were each charged with drug trafficking and conspiracy to violate drug laws at their arraignments at Lynn District Court on Friday, according to a spokeswoman for the Essex District Attorney.
Investigators believe the three men are part of a large drug trafficking network with ties to Mexico that distributes large amounts of heroin and meth to Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire.

Jacobson injected meth repeatedly into President John Kennedy and stars like Marilyn Monroe (below)



[From article]
In 1962, at the Carlyle Hotel in New York, a man “peeled off his clothing and began prancing around his hotel suite.” His bodyguards were cautiously amused, until the man “left the suite and began roaming through the corridor of the Carlyle.”
The man in question was delusional, paranoid and suffering a “psychotic break” from the effects of an overdose of methamphetamine.
He was also the president of the United States.

Methamphetamine Abuses Widespread

Though I am not a drug expert or a scientist I suspect there are at least two errors of fact in this report. Granted methamphetamine use is dangerous. But the details do not make sense.

[From article]
"Once people who are on meth become psychotic, they are very dangerous," said Dr. Alex Stalcup, who treated Haight Ashbury heroin users in the 1960s, but now researches meth and works with addicts in the San Francisco Bay Area suburbs. "They're completely bonkers; they're nuts. We're talking about very extreme alterations of normal brain function. Once someone becomes triggered to violence, there aren't any limits or boundaries."

If the focus is on brain function, going without sleep for a long period of time creates irrational thoughts in humans. Drugs are not the primary cause of non logical thinking. Here's an example of a doctor who treats drug addicted humans who misleads journalists, who in turn mislead the public.

[From article]
"Chronic use of the harsh chemical compound known as speed or crank can lead to psychosis, which includes hearing voices and experiencing hallucinations. The stimulant effect of meth is up to 50 times longer than cocaine, experts say, so users stay awake for days on end, impairing cognitive function and contributing to extreme paranoia."

Here again the blame is put on the drugs as a cause of mental illness when it is lack of sleep. The same misguided experts say that mental illness causes homelessness, when it is the exact opposite.

[From article]
"Its [methamphetamine] use initially creates feelings of euphoria and invincibility, but experts say repeated abuse can alter brain chemistry and sometimes cause schizophrenia-like behavior."

Here is the same lame argument made by the psychiatric industry that mental illness is a chemical imbalance in the brain. Methamphetamine use makes people stay awake for many hours sometimes days. No sleep deteriorates brain function worse than drug use.

[From article]
the deputy learned from two confidential informants that Sullivan was dealing meth but would sell it only if they had sex with him, the document stated. He was arrested after police set up a sting at a home.
[. . .]
In 2002, then-U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo praised him on his retirement, citing Sullivan for promoting homeland security and for being named Sheriff of the Year by the National Sheriff's Association.
