You got to love the US

jesus, somebody might be high right now. Back away from the vial.

Okay, let me take a crack at this.

Uh....A "therapeutic" amount of rattlesnake venom was to be extracted and ingested in order produce higher consciousness/hallucinations that would allow the user to commune with Odin and receive divine knowledge on how to enrich uranium using the Left-hand path.

The whiskey was just breakfast.

I can work out everything except the uranium.  The man seemed to be following WC Fields' sage advice: 'In case of snakebite, I always carry a bottle of whiskey.  I also carry a small snake.'

IDK. My best serious guess is that dude was under the impression that he had depleted uranium, and figured that he or someone else could make armor-piercing bullets or some other super-dense bullshit with it.

Won't he get a surprise when he tries to melt Uranium ore.    Yellow cake melts at twice the melting temperature of steel.

At that, he's freaking lucky it's already an oxide. If he had pure powdered uranium of any isotope, it would burn. In fact, finely divided uranium metal is pyrophoric- doesn't even need a heat source. I worked on a plasma isotope separation project right out of the university, and we had to have particle masks with HEPA filters at the ready when the module was opened. We had liquid nitrogen for the superconducting magnets, and there was usually a Dewar of it near to hand to toss onto the fire. Cooled it and suffocated it at the same time.

Maybe he was just going to make himself a lovely uranium glass pipe or some stemware for the missus.

Don't let the mugshot or rattlesnake fool you. 
The guy could be a very skilled craftsman.

[Anomalocaris]

He will have to have a furnace at home that can generation 3000 degrees centigrade.

[Athene]

He's probably got one just past his buddy's meth lab out yonder.

You know...down the road from Pappy's old distillery.

What's the scariest thing you ever transported in a vehicle?

A nun.

Considering some of the investigation files I've read when Gardai in Clonmel get to transport prisoners, I'm going to have to go with "I've never transported anything dangerous in my life, Kent".

I've been transported by the Gardaí and I've been transported by the RUC.  I'll take the Gardaí any time.  More empathetic.  The RUC hate you and can't wait to demonstrate how much.
