Is this drug paraphernalia?

[Whatisthisifound]

I’ll attach a photo of something me and ds found in his uni halls. (When he moved in, it’s not his!)

is it drug paraphernalia??

thanks!

Looks like a loose tea holder

Yeah looks like a think you make one cup of tea with. In the cup.

I also thought that was a loose tea holder 🤣

I found it on a ledge 7 feet off the ground, which is what made me think it was dodgy!!

Yes it is if the stem is hollow. its for chasing the dragon - heroin.

It looks like an Argentinian mate straw for drinking mate (kind of like a tea)

It looks like it might have had an innocent purpose, but the hollow handle has been adapted to form a mouthpiece

Possibly

Smoking crack, heroine, meth or cannabis, who knows?

It could be a straw for drinking Argentinian tea called mate 🧉 I haven't seen one exactly like that in the flesh, but here's a similar thing:

Drug abusers very often use innocent items like this as you can't generally buy crack pipes in the shops.
Does it have burn marks on it?

Back in my youth we used to push cocaine through one of these with a spoon to make it less clumpy. God I was naughty

It’s for drinking mate.

Definitely for maté. Here's a photo of our collection

Mate straw. How on earth would this be used for drugs? Too full of holes for smoking anything! Have you ever seen a crack pipe or a bong? They don't look like this.

Another image of it

The ledge was seriously dirty as well!

Yes it is if the stem is hollow. its for chasing the dragon - heroin.

You say this very confidently. Have you seen one of these used for that purpose yourself?

That's the weirdest looking bong or pipe I've ever seen.

I'm going with tea.

Like the protective gloves btw. Don't want to contaminate yourself with tea!

Does it matter? Just bin it and forget about it I would. For sure there will be drug use going on in halls of residence.

That would be a shitty bong.

Why not just throw it out?

It looks like you're prepping to take it to the police station.

Deffo a maté straw - my ex partner was from Buenos Aires and used one every morning to drink his maté.i bought him one on Amazon to keep at my house.

The gloves were actually for cleaning the filthy room!

I don't go around with gloves in case I encounter drugs!

Unless it's got burn marks I think it's innocent. As long as you don't think it's his I don't know why it matters?

Maybe someone put it up there laughing knowing it would confuse the heck out of someone in future?

I do love that you’re holding it like you’re in the midst of a forensic investigation though. 😂
