The neighbour of a Sydney woman whose child died of a methadone overdose told police he watched her prepare syringes full of amphetamines in front of her children on several occasions, an inquest has heard....In the statement, taken in May 2006, the man - who cannot be named for legal reasons - described being at the woman's home on five occasions sharing $100 worth of amphetamines with her partner and his own partner.
"I have seen [the woman] divide the powdered drugs up and melt her half in a spoon and then put it into two separate syringes. This all occurred in [her] home," the man said in his statement.
"I remember seeing both the two girls running around the house when we used to divide the drugs up."
The man said he often saw "lots" of syringes around the family's home.
But before the coroner today:
...the man could not recall much of what he said in his statement and said he did not know why he had said it."Compared to other kids, they were excellent ... always well dressed," he said.
"[The boy] was always smiling.
Drug users are such a likeable bunch.
