Authorities in Florida seized $21 million dollars worth of crystal meth after a four month long investigation. One of the biggest barriers to this investigation was the level of counter surveillance this drug trafficking organization had. Police told reporters on Thursday that this drug trafficking organization learned about police tactics from reality police shows. Interestingly, those suffering from a crystal meth addiction were able to acquire their drugs in part because authorities are allowing cameras to document their operations.
Drug and alcohol addiction is running rampant throughout our society. The only real way to handle this epidemic is through effective drug rehabs. If you or anyone you know is in need of help please call Narconon Louisiana at 866-422-4650 for more information.
Several years ago methamphetamine became a worldwide epidemic. This man-made drug is surpassing crack cocaine in the amount of users. This is mostly because of its addictive qualities, the fact that it is so easy to make, and its availability to consumers. State governments have started to become wise to the fact that crystal meth addicts have the ability to purchase all the ingredients needed for production at your local grocery store.
Most states have passed laws on the amount of pseuodophedrine and other known meth ingredients a person can purchase a month or even at a time. This has resulted in a significant decrease in the amount of meth labs in operation. However, state officials have not been able to foresee another player in the game of cat and mouse – Mexico.
Mexican Drug Trafficking organizations have taken over the methamphetamine racket in the entire U.S. Meth Super Labs have been found throughout Mexico. The labs generate enough crystal meth to supply the entire U.S. with the drug, eliminating the need to produce the drug at home. Recent interviews with meth lab operators have indicated that it is easier and cheaper to buy crystal meth from dealers, as opposed to making the meth themselves.
For those who have a crystal meth addiction the only real solution is to enroll in a drug and alcohol rehab that will allow them to break away from this highly addictive, man-made drug.
