Cantrell plane crash shows meth in urine link
National Transportation Safety Board findings show former South Carolina state Senator Paul Cantrell had 0.8 milligrams of methamphetamine in his urine at the time of the John’s Island crash that killed him. Narcolepsy and hyperactivity in children are exemptions for meth use, not obesity treatment. Cantrell estate executor Robson says he did not know of any drug and suggests it could be an old prescription.
