Possible Meth House...Should I Run or Buy?

I have a very interesting situation developing and I am wondering what I should do next.

I have had my eye on a home that has been vacant for just over a year.  The lawn is being mowed but clearly there is no one living there.  I found the owners information on the Tax System but there is no phone number and their home address is listed as the house address. 

This morning I did a Google Search on their names and found out in May of 2009 the people who own the home were arrested for cooking Meth in the house.  Damn.

Should I run or should I keep pursuing the house.

As a side note it has a great covered patio and I was considering moving my family into the house for a year or two until we can upgrade.  

I am just stopped in my tracks at this point.
