Nugent Family Meth House Indianapolis IN
Chris and Jennifer Nugent purchased a home in Mooresville, IN in May of 2013.
Little did they know the house had been previously occupied by people that ran a home-based business from the house.
The trouble is the business was manufacturing illegal methamphetamine.
The Nugent's had the house inspected by pros, but unfortunately, it's not a standard to test for illegal drug contamination.
Sadly the test for meth only costs $49.

sad, but true: I have forwarded this to two friends and former business associates. One is a home inspector. The other does specialty cleanups, including mold and flood damage. Now there is something else we all need to be concerned with when buying a previously lived in home. Tim, thanks for spreading this kind of noteworthy news to heighten our awareness.
Question is - does that test only test for Meth. or for all drugs? Because when having a house inspection done you're usually more concerned about whether there is water damage than thinking anyone might have been producing drugs.
