If he believes that the DEA is wrong then I would be concerned with whether our Sheriff is influenced by memes and fake news. But if he's lying to get support from Republicans and incite hatred towards Mexicans then that's an even bigger concern for me.

Antithesis,
Your article about how fentanyl enters the US is from 2020, things apparently have changed, the below is from January this year,

"These Counter Threat Teams draw on the intelligence from our 334 offices around the world to map the cartels' global networks and to identify targets for investigation and prosecution. While the cartels' operations are based in Mexico, DEA has identified more than 50 additional countries where these criminal networks operate. DEA has also traced the cartels' global supply chain around the world. The cartels purchase chemicals from companies in China, mass produce the fentanyl in Mexico, and then traffic and distribute finished fentanyl widely throughout the United States."

Antithesis,
Below is from the 2020 article you linked, where does it say how much fentanyl was seized back then?

"The latest efforts resulted in the seizure of 988 grams of meth with a street value of about $35,000, 12 grams of heroin worth about $1,800, 157 prescription pills (mostly Oxycodone pain pills) worth about $5,000 and 28 grams of cocaine worth about $1,200. About 29 grams of marijuana were seized."

Jimmy, you have no substance. You Democrats enjoy killing innocent babies,

Do a little research and you'll discover that the vast majority of fentanyl and other drugs are smuggled through ports of entry, not through the "open border."

VP DOESN'T MAKE THE POLICIES, CAN'T BLAME THE FUTURE POTUS KAMALA HARRIS.

Well, maybe Trump shouldn't have killed the border bill.

Looks like Pearl is having a good time in the mug shot line!

that a boy acupervshouldadidarunatelldat.very happy they cleared the air around the hb.

Sheriff Shew can only do so much with the budget he has. My opinion, if a person is convicted of selling fentanyl, it should be a mandatory minimum 20 year sentence. Even more if it results in a death.

Exactly Albert.

Truth,
Since you're so dialed into Wilkes County's illegal drug trade, maybe you should call the Sheriff's Office and let them know who the heavy hitters are.

Hey tipper, why do YOU feel that a kilo of fentanyl is street level abuse?

Both sides do it just before election. You can watch out for state workers running with shovels too

They never get the the Wilkes heavy hitters in the drug trade, its always the low level street dealers. They do this just to look good to the public in the media and make it look like they are making a impact.

1,070 grams fentanyl with a street value of $53,000;

104 grams of methamphetamine (meth) with a street value of $2,000;
