ABSTRACT
A clandestine lab is a Pandora’s Box of illegal activities. Controlled substances are produced using household chemicals mixed with ordinary utensils in what some have called a “kitchen of death.” What appears at first glance to be simply atrocious housekeeping or even just a hobby gone awry may actually be the final step in the production of many of the drugs sold on the street or the explosives used in various forms of domestic terrorism.
