In India, a 25-year-old chemistry teacher and a 35-year-old physics teacher were so inspired by the crime series Breaking Bad that they set up their own drug lab, The Times of India reported.
According to case files, the two educators from Rajasthan rented an apartment and outfitted it just like in the show. They then began producing mephedrone, earning more than $220,000 from several batches before being caught by police.
“We wanted to do everything properly so we wouldn’t get caught. We watched Breaking Bad and decided we could do better than Walter White in the finale,” one of the suspects said.
