	Clyde Apperson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Clyde Apperson (born 1955) was arrested in 2000 for allegedly running the largest illicit LSD manufacturing operation in United States history with partner William Leonard Pickard.
		Allegedly Pickard and Apperson previously manufactured LSD in Mountain View, California, in Oregon and in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
		The DEA believes that Apperson and Pickard were responsible for manufacturing a majority of the LSD sold in the United States and cites an estimated 95 percent reduction in the drug's availability as evidence of this.

	03-3368 -- U.S. v. Apperson -- 03/28/2006
		Apperson similarly argues that most of the time during calendar year 2001 was includable and was not impacted by the pendency of his motion to sever.
		Although Apperson is correct that the filing of a superseding indictment does not serve to toll the speedy trial clock, he overlooks the fact that, due to the pendency of his motion to sever, the speedy trial clock was tolled at the time the superseding indictment was returned.
		Apperson contends that the two continuances granted by the district court (the first continuance was granted on February 19, 2002; the second was granted on July 18, 2002) to Pickard based on medical problems experienced by Pickard's counsel should not have served to toll the speedy trial clock.

		Apperson was arrested driving the rental truck containing the lab.
		According to court testimony, Pickard and Apperson previously manufactured LSD in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where every five weeks the lab produced about 2.2 pounds of LSD, approximately 10 million doses that cost less than one cent a dose to produce and would sell for as much as $10 a dose.
		Pickard and Apperson each face a minimum of ten years and a maximum of life in federal prison without parole.

	04-3375 -- U.S. v. Apperson -- 11/08/2005
		Defendants Clyde Apperson and William Pickard, convicted of and sentenced for trafficking in lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), appeal from the district court's order denying their joint motion for new trial based upon alleged juror misconduct.
		Defendants Apperson and Pickard were indicted on charges of conspiring to manufacture, distribute and dispense 10 grams or more of LSD in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 846, and possession with intent to distribute 10 grams or more of LSD in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1).
		That led to Pickard and Apperson filing with the district court a joint motion for new trial based upon newly discovered evidence of alleged juror misconduct.

		They argued their constitutional right to a speedy trial was violated, that evidence seized should have been suppressed because it allegedly was obtained illegally and that prosecutors abused the grand jury process.
		Apperson also argued he was prejudiced because U.S. District Judge Richard Rogers refused to sever his trial from Pickard's.

		The Kansas bust marked the third time in four years that the DEA had arrested Apperson and Pickard on LSD lab charges.
		Historically, illicit LSD production has been dominated by just a few operators, so if Apperson and Pickard were the United States' major LSD suppliers, taking them down may well have caused this major disruption.

	The numbers touted by the government in its big LSD bust just don't add up. - By Ryan Grim - Slate Magazine
		On Nov. 25, 2003, a federal judge sentenced Leonard Pickard and Clyde Apperson to life and 30 years, respectively, for one count each of conspiracy to manufacture and distribute more than 10 grams of LSD and one count each of possession with the intent to distribute more than 10 grams of LSD.
		The usual dose of LSD has fallen to about 20 micrograms in recent years, so at that dosage level, Pickard and Apperson possessed 2 billion hits of acid—enough to give every person in the Western Hemisphere two doses and still have 250 million hits left over.
		They apprehended Apperson, who was driving the truck, but Pickard, piloting the Buick, took off on foot and outran several agents half his age.
