April was just another month…and yet we managed to find a daily supply of drug related media articles indicating that drugs – and in particular Ice – are a rapidly growing problem in society.

The final week of April looked like this –

A 30 year man pleaded guilty to numerous charges when he drove two young children, lost control of the vehicle and put their lives at risk, after smoking a quantity of Ice.

A Wollongong woman awaiting sentencing on drug supply charges was arrested with an amount of amphetamines in her possession and syringes.

A 34 year old Whyalla man was charged with drug trafficking after police pulled him over for a traffic offence and found methamphetamines and a large amount of cash inside.

A True Story

I turned up for work and wondered where my business partner was. Several hours later I discovered why he didn’t appear. He had been found dead in an alley way at Kings Cross with a needle still in his arm. He had died of a heroin overdose. 

I had no idea that he had a drug addiction. We had been working together for 15 years. How was it that he had managed to keep it a secret from me?

The shock of this tragic discovery worsened when I found out he had been fiddling the books in order to pay for his habit. He had taken more than $300,000 from the company account.

No matter how well you think you know someone…you don’t.
