Medsafe investigators, working with customs and police, found Rainbow supplied these unapproved medicines to at least three people.

As many as three?! I think he might have had a few more customers than that! I seem to remember "gay lube oil" being talked about here - it's quite a memorable brand name. :pfft:

they must of had lots hearsay validation but only had grounds to convict him on distributing to those three. it must of been a long chase to put him behind bars for those three people if they gave him 5 years.

i dont think the average bro who hooks up a few people in the gym can get jailed that long just like that. maybe im wrong? be careful you guys! :)

Im only guessing i know nothing about this case, Im suggesting to get a long sentence like that the substance he was supplying must of been low low quality which means it may have had other things in it...but im only stabbing in the dark..

Ok seems stab may have been wrong...you are probably right re P

The Auckland District Court today handed down a three-month jail term to former bodybuilder Mark William Rainbow for importing, possessing and supplying prescription and other medicines in breach of the medicines legislation.

At the same hearing, Mr Rainbow was sentenced to five years in prison for offences under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1975. Police handled all aspects of this particular trial. He will be serving both sentences concurrently.

Mr Rainbow, 43, pleaded guilty last March to 38 breaches of the Medicines Act 1981, including possession of anabolic steroids and related medicines used for performance and image enhancement, and sale of unapproved medicines.

Amphetamines - 5 years

AAS supply - 3 months

“He was supplying prescription medicines to consumers who had not received proper medical assessment and advice. There was no consideration as to the safety and suitability of these medicines for consumers, including the impact the medicines could have on consumers through side effects or interaction with other medications,” Mr Fitzgerald noted.

"Potential adverse effects from the use of anabolic steroids include: stunted growth, if used by those under 21 years old, virilisation of women, worsening of heart failure, renal failure, and hypertension. When used in high doses, risks include liver tumours and liver toxicity, abnormal cholesterol levels, and psychiatric disturbances such as depression, aggression and hypomania."

there are no victims to methampetamine only the victim of the people who use it. and if there are such thing mr rainbow sure aint one of them. these people know the consequences of the drug and what it will do to them before they take it.

Tom,

When the whole Andrew / Marc thing went down I heard your name thrown into a conversation about it all. Did you know more about this one than your letting on?

Meth

and whats the BIG diff?

Don't you know..?

:(

well i just dont agree that there is a HUGE diff. Their chemical structure is very similar as with MDMA

Might be similar chemical structure, but massive difference, when taken... As regards addiction, & the Social problem related to Methamphetamine...

Amphetamine has been used for years as a dietry aid, performance enhancer & party drug in clubs... Hence its B classification in the UK..

Methamphetamine is regarded as more addictive than Heroin or Crack Cocaine.... And is also responsible for a Massive Social problem here in the UK....

I dont believe there are close chemical similaritys of Methamphetamine & MDMA.............. Only some similar effects when taken....

:wink:
