  Recent Crystal Methamphetamine Seizures

  

  Illegal online pharmacies are partially to blame for the prescription drugs that many people abuse today. It's not hard for a person to scan the net today and find an illicit pharmacy online to buy painkillers from or any other prescription drug for that matter. The abuse of street drugs and prescription medications is so prevalent today and there are various ways people can find the substance they're looking for to feed their addiction.

  Many of these online pharmacies are overseas and unfortunately it's easy today for anyone to find a substance to abuse. We tend to associate these illegal pharmacies with prescription drugs but that's not necessarily so. I was shocked to learn that crystal meth could be purchased from an online pharmacy overseas.

  According to The News Messenger, Homeland Security got involved when a man received a package he ordered online from an overseas pharmacy which contained crystal meth. It's scary to think that anyone can order dangerous drugs like crystal methamphetamine from an overseas pharmacy and have them delivered to their doorstep. Fortunately this package of crystal meth was intercepted by the Department of Homeland Security and this is one illegal package that wasn't delivered.

  People will go to any extreme they have to when it comes to trafficking drugs like crystal meth, not long ago The National reported that $1.4m dollars' worth of crystal meth was shipped by air cargo hidden in car parts. The amount seized was 26kg's of crystal meth that fortunately was unable to get into the hands of our youth and young adult substance users.
