'The health effects of exposure to a meth-contaminated house can be devastating. One Adams County man unleashed a toxic dose of chemicals when he used a steam cleaner on his apartment's carpet, said Thomas Hoef linger, his lawyer.

"He actually passed out and had to crawl out into the parking lot," Hoeflinger said. "When he came to, he admitted himself to a hospital."

Hoeflinger said his client, who does not wish to be named in this article, was exposed to a methamphetamine level many times more than what is considered a health hazard.

The man suffered extensive brain damage, lost his ability to control emotions, can no longer work and "is currently in rehab, trying to learn such simple tasks as making his day out, planning a calendar," he said.'
