Kansas no longer a haven for meth cooks

However much a hassle it is for sniffle sufferers, the new state law requiring that cold and allergy pills be sold only from behind the counter appears to be paying off. A decline in meth lab busts early in the year and the sharp drop in busts since the law changed in June — down 64 percent compared with the summer months in 2004 — both indicate Kansas at last has put an end to its reputation as a meth-making haven. It’s great to see this law, named in memory of slain Greenwood County Sheriff Matt Samuels, working so quickly and so well.
