We recently had a female donor give our collector a specimen that was quite warm, enough above the acceptable temperature that the collector did not accept it. The donor was informed that we could not accept what she had presented, and we put her on our water protocol.
We have written about return cheaters in the past – those that we’ve caught before and return just to get caught again. However, we recently had our first threepeat! A gentleman came in on the 5th of the month and presented us with a specimen we would not accept, and he left the clinic.
We had a donor give us a sample that was too hot, and if you’ve read our previous Cheaters stories, you know that the sample temperature is a tell-tale sign that a specimen did not come from the donor’s body.
The donor claimed the urine was hot because she had a fever, and then she hit the panic button on her key ring, activating her car alarm in our parking lot.
Drug test cheaters, for the most part, are not the smartest people in the world. You might even say they give themselves away!
A donor came one day for a forensic test (tests not done according to DOT protocol are known as forensic AKA non-DOT tests) and gave us a sample we would not accept. Like most cheaters, he pressed us to tell him why we would not accept it…
