In 2008 and 2009, Georgia maintained a fairly steady Meth lab bust rate, with busts at 152 and 165 respectively. Then 2010 rolled around the corner and a new type of meth lab was formed.
Meth labs traditionally take up lots of space and require a large amount of materials for production, particularly pseudoephedrine, a legal drug used as a decongestant. But now the trend has changed, with large scale operations falling away, and smaller labs made for personal use are on the rise.
Chicago police found 10 kilograms of heroin valued at $1.5 million, along with $5 million in cash at a home on North Kildare Avenue in Chicago on Friday, July 2nd. The heroin was stashed in the garage and the cash was found in various heat-sealed plastic bags scattered throughout the house. What’s unusual is that the drugs and money were discovered in the same location. Officials said the drugs are linked to a Mexican drug cartel.
