Sinaloa Cartel: Heroin, Meth seizures up 300% in Arizona

Lucio R. Borderland Beat republish from Arizona KTAR Newsroom

Both heroin and methamphetamine seizures are up nearly 300 percent in Arizona over the past five years, a Drug Enforcement Administration report said.

The report, released Thursday, said methamphetamine seizures have increased 294 percent. After the United States cracked down on chemicals used to make the drugs over the past decade, the DEA said drug cartels in Mexico have become the leading manufacturer and supplier of meth that winds up the United States.

The DEA said the cartels have “super laboratories” capable of producing hundred-pound quantities of the drug. The cartels have an easier time getting their hands on the necessary chemicals because of less-restrictive Mexican laws.

The agency called heroin a “serious and increasing threat” in Arizona. Seizures of the narcotic are up 246 percent in the past five years, the report said.

The report said the rise of heroin usage is directly attributable to the increase of opiate-based prescription drugs. As people use the prescriptions, they become addicted and later turn to heroin to meet their needs.

The DEA called Mexican cartels and the drugs they sell “the greatest criminal drug threat to the United States.” It specifically cited the Sinaloa Cartel, which operates along the Mexico-Arizona border, as one of the worst.

    2. The United States did not create or invent crystal meth. It was created in the late 1880's by a German scientist. The Japanese developed it into a more potent drug. But the United States has nothing to do with the origin of the drug.

      Adolf Hitler fed crystal meth to the German Nazi soldiers so they could fight longer and would be meaner. Meth is used by countries all over the world.

      It is a drug widely abused in the Czech Republic. There it is called Pervitin and is produced in small hidden laboratories and a limited number of larger ones. Consumption is primarily domestic but Pervitin is also exported to other parts of Europe and Canada. The Czech Republic, Sweden, Finland, Slovakia and Latvia reported amphetamines and methamphetamine as accounting for between 20% and 60% of those seeking drug abuse treatment.

      In Southeast Asia, the most common form of methamphetamine is a small pill—called a Yaba in Thailand and a Shabu in the Philippines.

      I guess you locos are going to blame the Americans for inventing cocaine as well, huh?

    3. Take that 5:20 in yer monkey face. Lol

      Hitler used to take meth too. The maniac had his own private doctor, he gave him his meth shots. @ 11:25 Isn't another german scientist who invented that as well??

    4. Americans just market it to americans, and send the money offshore for those that invented the drugs to invest it in buying american industries by the dozen, put the american workers on unemployment lines and send their jobs to china, all for promises of trickle down economic benefits from the "globalization"...

  2. This is all a cover up. Mr guzman has a deal with the DEA. The DEA confiscates those drugs but they distributE for guzman. 75% of the drugs they confiscate go to the market. 25% they keep for personal use. ( a taX so guzman can keep sending drugs.) Everyone is getting there drugs and money. Therefore everyone is happy. Atte el morroñis de la palma navolato sinaloa. ajuuuaa

      --what escobar I mean gaviria forgets to say is that peña nieto has been a part of some of the thickest drug trafficking for the last 15 years, bosses mexican cartels, is a murdering butcher of mexicans by the dozens and that it has got worse since he took over in 2012...

  3. On any city in the US you have specialist doctors "treating pain" with all kind of pills, whatever their patients diagnose and prescribe, the door will fill the paperwork for the pharmacy and as many refills as necessary...and if we go back to who invented anphetamines, cocaine and heroine, we discover that they also invented how channel funnel almost all the money it generates, to their European banks.
    Arizona also engineered with ALEC and CCA laws to stick it to the mexican illegals and criminals to make them work for free for them on top of collecting luxurious payments from government agencies and border control, patrol, customs...
    --now trafficking must go trough the gulf to the east coast, mexico needs no more breaks, the TransPacific protocols are a done deal, pemex is down and out, CFE follows, even carlos slim is a narco-petrolero now...

  5. When I have to go to Houston to work with addicted teenagers. The number one drug they are addicted to is heroin. For $10.00 they get high for 6 to 8 hours. Cheaper than painpills and 96% pure. As many busts are made,there are tons that make it through. My heart bleeds for these young teenagers. I have never heard a 13 year old say I want to be a junkie when I grow up. Bless all innocents. Excellent post as always. Also, I've heard that the bloods are delievering whatever drug you need. Call them up 15 min.home delievery.So freaking sad. Peace.

    2. You guessed wrong. It depends on factors such as quality, tolerance and delivery method (iv, im, smoke, etc). But yeah, usually it wears off 6-8hrs after use, meaning you start withdrawal. Its DEF not like cocaine where you gotta do it every 5min in order to not crash.

    2. Don't even think she is the best choice for president just because she is a woman. The email scandal is not her first shady deal, Blackwater? Travelgate? .... Makes her moral ethics, very very questionable... Just because bill clinton did a pretty good job, doesn't necessarily mean she is going to do the same. Voters need to do some serious research if they want things to get better for this country...

    2. 11:25. If your chold went in to have their wisdom teeth removed and got a rx for pain pills. And, 30 days later was addicted would you have the same freaking mentality? Yes, kids do at times have pill parties and steal them from their parents medicine cabinet. Then they too get addicted. 90% of the worlds pain pills are used in the USA. That's insane. Addiction can bappen to anyone. With you lumping all addicts in the F*CK them let them die shows you need to either get a medical degree.a heart or stop talking crap. Someone might believe you.

      Legalizing mota won't do anything other than make the weed smugglers go to kidnapping, murder and running speed or heroin.

  17. If the Cartels were smart, they would be dealing in hydrocodone. Selling these pills for $4-7 each, depending on quantity. There are millions of Americans that love hydrocodone, but will not risk taking heroin.

    If you do heroin, you can't go out in public. You're literally like a zombie. But if you pop a couple of hydrocodone pills, you can work, play, be the life of the party. The Cartels are missing out on billions of dollars here.

    This is one area the Cartels are lagging behind on.

  28. I have read a lot of propaganda on the meth subject and the DEA does itself no justice spreading a bunch of bs about how the drug is made. It just like our American money it comes out of thin air a couple of secrets and some chemicals.

    We americans are so empathetic right now to drugs side effects with the actual ad campaigns of all these miraculous drugs until the end all the side effects are mentioned. Liver and Kidney disease, several that increase cancer risk, all these drugs were approved by the FDA yet they hated on Jack Kevoirkan (Dr Death).

    Maybe we need to quit being a nation of addicts and quit relying drugs to make us "feel" healthy whos side effects are going to kill us in the long run anyways. Maybe with everything we injest into our body that isn't food and water should be illegal. Maybe we would cure the disease of aging and stop death and dying. This is never mentioned with living a healthy lifestyle. only diet and exercise are involved in a healthy lifestyle. But a diet of medicine taken before or after food 3 times a day sounds like a diet all its own to me.
    We won't stop death with a magical pill that's only going to give us a better chance of getting a deadly disease.
