PCP-laced pot known to have potentially disastrous effects

    Investigators say the suspects in recent, brutal murder cases in Camden smoked a drug known as “wet” before the crimes.

    The Camden County Prosecutor’s office says there have been several other homicides in recent years in which that dangerous drug cocktail appeared to have played a part.

    NewsWorks Tonight Host Dave Heller spoke about the drug and its potential effects with Dr. Ausim Azizi, chairman of the department of neurology at Temple University’s School of Medicine.
