Angel dust is also known as PCP and is a white crystalline powder that can also be dissolved in alcoholic drinks.

They experience hallucinations, severe mood disorders, and amnesia and outbreaks of violent behavior. Experts say PCP is addictive and one of the long lasting effects can be that users become violent or suicidal. Angel dust has been called 'devil dust' by those who have seen the violent outbursts of users and the manner in which it transforms them. The US Department of Justice's Drug Enforcement Administration says Angel Dust normally sells on the streets in powder, crystal, tablet, capsule, and liquid forms frpm $5 a tablet to $300 per ounce. Officials said users also referred to as Supergrass, Boat, Tic Tac, Zoom and, Shermans .

The NFL waill now have to investigate how a heavy drug using sports star could have avoided rigorous testing designed to weed out drug cheats. They will have to consider whether the fallen star may have had a supply of masking agents which can be bought over the counter or he stayed clean long enough each summer to pass pre-season tests and then fell off the wagon without fear of being caught. Either finding will prompt calls for more rigorous testing of NFL players for illicit substances.
