Meth Lab Found In Walmart Restroom

(BOAZ, AL) — Of all the things a Walmart janitor comes across, meth labs are probably low on the list.

Boaz Police say a maintenance worker cleaning the women’s restroom found pseudoephedrine pills and a plastic water bottle with residue in the bottom.

Managers contacted police, who recovered what Chief Terry Davis called a one-pot ‘shake and bake’ type lab.

“That kind of blew my mind when I read the report,” Davis said. “We’ve found a lot of shake and bake meth labs in different places but never inside a business.”

Police said it takes about 15 to 30 minutes to cook low-quality methamphetamine using this method, and they do not know if the culprit finished the product.

They might nose around tattoo and bike shops, but nobody in his right (even tweaked) mind would cook it there, it's the first place conventional thinkers suspect.

It's Wally's fault for being so mean when it comes to wages. People supplement their income any way they can.

Going by personal experience, janitors leave the restrooms alone for long, LONG periods of time.
