A couple facing extradition to the US over an internet-based drug making ring has been remanded in custody. Jan 31st 2007 But the couple were only selling chemicals that are legal here in the UK.
Kerry-Ann Shanks, 30, and 43-year-old Brian Howes were refused bail at Edinburgh Sheriff Court. The illegal remand was based on false information from PF David Dickson who has been known to suppress information in the past. The couple were detained on Tuesday following a police operation in Bo’ness, near Falkirk.
It has been alleged that they supplied chemicals to illegal drugs laboratories in the US involved in making the synthetic drug methamphetamine but no evidence has been produced and is not needed for extradition.
The move followed an indictment handed down by a grand jury in Arizona which alleges that the couple sold chemicals through their website – including red phosphorus and iodine – which are used to manufacture the drug, also known as crystal meth. But no evidence shows that the couple knew they were being used to make drugs. The chemicals were sold for legitimate use by Mr Howes and Miss Shanks.
The arrests of Mr Howes a father-of-four and Ms Shanks – a mother & father-of-four – came at the climax of an international operation involving police and other law enforcement agencies investigating the making of the drug.
Police allege that the pair created a “one stop shop” for the chemicals. But do no4t say the chemicals are legal in the UK.

How do I report how the U.S get out being prosecuted for laws they break against a British Citizen It’s just amazing how they can just walk into our country and demand we hand over one of our own. I have tried for the last 16 years to get the U.S government into a courtroom for violation of my human and civil rights you would not believe this case, and how they have responded to my complaint on file. That U.S legal system is a threat to everyone who is not a U.S. Citizen. We must be very careful on how we conduct business with this country. I have my case if anyone is interested. my case is currently under appeal before the Nevada Supreme ct. case no. 59381
