Ruben Jaramillo, a person in New Mexico, is charged with child abuse. Police raided his house and discovered that his house served as an underground lab that had manufactured anabolic steroids. According to New Mexico laws, an individual may be accused in child abuse, if he\she just allows children to be there, where the chemical substances or proper equipment utilized for production or maintenance of these illegal preparations are present.
When the Albuquerque Police Department’s Eastside Narcotics Team raided the house, they saw that there was a clandestine lab in it. Police oficcers found several kilograms of raw powder for production of steroids, such substances, as benzyl alcohol and sunflower oil, more than 150 vials of the controlled substances. Some vials had following labels: “Testosterone Cypionate”. Moreover, police mentioned that information related to prices, quantities and types of steroids had been found too. Chemical substances were in different rooms around the house, including the bedroom and the kitchen.
Ruben’s two daughters of 11 and 13 years old were at home, when police officers raided the house.
As it is known, New Mexico is not the only state where the manufacture of anabolic steroids can be defined as child abuse. At least 10 other states have got the same laws. Such laws have certain basis.
Chemical substances may be toxic. They may destroy children’s health. It is important also to know that there is a risk of fires and explosions of some chemical substances. Parents who produce anabolic steroids at home do not take in consideration their children’s health. The children face great dangers in such situations. How can children live in a methamphetamine lab and be free of dangers?
Parents that only use steroids differ from those that manufacture them, especially at home.
This is the first situation in Albuquerque, when production of anabolic steroids is defined as child abuse by prosecutors.
