Just for the record- he was NOT cooking in that house.. And we never gave them consent to search the house.

Where do these meth hillbillies come from and what makes them think this is any kind of way to behave?

Well he must have been cooking somewhere! There is no room for a human being to doing activities that can and does harm others. Get a real job!

Who cares if you consented or not? Its people like this that are polluting our world even more. Meth is horrible. Anyone in that house could have died had something gone wrong. Not to mention all the chemicals in the air, can cause severe health issues to anyone exposed. I hope he rots in prison.

SMELL's like a RAT. If pressured to do something that's against the law, who is the guilty one? Check your self!
- Mr. Lenze is not only a family loving father, and great friend. He is also a MARINE. his sacrifice to allow are freedom should be recognized. Who are we to judge. Thank you for all that you do Dale.

Are you serious??? Because he WAS a marine, and did the right thing at one time...DOES NOT GIVE HIM THE RIGHT TO BREAK LAWS AND HAVE/MAKE ILLEGAL DRUGS!!!!
and for the record...at no point in that article, was anything mentioned about him being a bad dad or friend..BUT if he was such a great caring dad and friend...would he really still have that shit in his house with his kids after it blew up and injured his other friend.?????? Maybe you need a better discription of the words good and friend. WOW.

It's great that he is a Marine but that doesn't help this matter in the least. Anyone can be an addict, whether its a member of the armed forces or a doctor prescribing medication. There are lots of good people that get caught up in drugs and it ruins their lives and those around them. He obviously endangered the lives of those around him not to mention innocent people driving next to him while high on meth. Scary that anyone would think he's above judgement. Do the crime - do the time!

To all those good friends of dales, you might want to think about who you call friend. Sounds like my ol buddy dale has a job now. Drug task force. Haha I'm loving it

Hey "Uncle" Don, i didnt know you where out of prision??

I just do not believe that dale would be a snitch no how, no way. But ya know after doing this for so many years and getting in so much trouble for it, maybe he will do just that. And all of those making it, doing it, need to be set up and put away anyway. But then again, Why they would say that he "wanted to work with you guys" and put it in the freaking newspaper so all can see?? doesn't make sense either. I just don't see why they would want the world to know he is a snitch if that in fact is the case. Doesn't make a bit of sense to me.I just don't see how that could benefit them (piggy pies) at all. And so what if he is, these people at 40-50yrs old should put it up, be grown adults. I wish the best for dale and his family. He really is a good guy and has done all he can for his family. I hope he does snitch so maybe he can get a lighter sentence and get out, continue to raise his family and do it the clean way. These other people with comments besides Donnie, we obviously know he still doing the shit by his comments.....Goodluck Dale and especially to his wife, and their four children. I came from texas to visit you all about 4-5 yrs ago.. Don't know if the kids remember me but I know their mother does! Get a hold of me, my email is jmarkscompany@yahoo.com.I love and miss all of you guys and it was a joy to see all of you children so grown! I used to babysit the two oldest boys back when they were babies!! Please email me and give me a heads up! I am on your side. Mandy

Meth is bad!! Dont know why anyone would make excuses for anyone who cooks it??Defend bad behavior, more bad behavior are the results!!
