Ice is filling emergency wards with psychotic, dangerous patients, to the alarm of doctors who thought they'd seen everything. "They’re the most out of control, violent human beings I have ever seen in my life - and I've been around for a long time," says one. "It makes heroin seem like the really good old days." In The Ice Age, Four Corners goes to the heart of this destructive new epidemic. Reporter Matthew Carney takes his camera into a netherworld inhabited by hardcore ice addicts - or skaters as they call themselves - who live for their next hit. |
