"Flakka is usually made from the chemical alpha-PVP, a synthetic version of the stimulant cathinone, the same class of chemical used to make bath salts, a drug that rose to national prominence in 2012 during a high-profile case of one man chewing another’s face while high on the drug."

I thought the final autopsy results stated that this guy had nothing but marijuana in his system. Any clarification?

This is a very specific description of the effects.

This shite and "bath salts" aren't much different than the adderal everyone here loves so much. They are all amphetamines and if you do enough and stay up long enough you will have bad reactions.

I'm a student in Florida and I've never heard of Flakka so I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this drug isn't exacltly "sweeping through Florida"

my cousin was a drug dealer and he had some marijuana in his pocket and he was running from the cops in the rain and it got wet and absorbed through his skin

nowadays he thinks he's a glass of orange juice and will spill if he lays down

You are correct. But the time the results were in, the media had already found something else to sensationalize so nobody paid attention.
