DEA Releases 2024 National Drug Threat Assessment DEA Administrator Anne Milgram unveiled the 2024 National Drug Threat Assessment (NDTA), offering a comprehensive analysis of the illicit drug threats and trafficking trends in the U.S. Key Highlights: Synthetic Drug Crisis: Shift from plant-based drugs to synthetic ones like fentanyl and methamphetamine has exacerbated the drug crisis. Cartel Influence: Sinaloa and Jalisco cartels are the primary culprits behind synthetic drug trafficking. Staggering Statistics: In 2022, drug-related deaths reached 107,941, with fentanyl responsible for 70% of these fatalities. Record Seizures: Fentanyl seizures in 2023 hit unprecedented levels, with over 79 million pills and 13,176 kilograms of powder seized. Digital Drug Trade: Social media and encrypted apps are revolutionizing how cartels operate, extending their reach globally. International Collaborations: Cartels are partnering with China-based chemical companies and money laundering networks, increasingly using cryptocurrency. This assessment is crucial for law enforcement, policymakers, and the public in combating the ongoing drug crisis. For more details, visit DEA.gov.

Narcotics investigations, coordinated by law enforcement, employ surveillance, undercover operations, and forensic analysis to disrupt illegal drug activities encompassing production, distribution, and consumption. These endeavors are critical in identifying, apprehending, and dismantling the networks perpetuating drug abuse. By targeting the root causes of drug trafficking, these investigations play a crucial role in ensuring public health and safety. https://lnkd.in/eGhk4Zyf

***EXCERPTS*** DEA Press Release re Year in Review: DEA Innovates to Fight Fentanyl "Today, fentanyl is the leading cause of death for Americans between the ages of 18 and 45. In calendar year 2023, DEA seized more than 77 million fentanyl pills and nearly 12,000 pounds of fentanyl powder. This is the most fentanyl seized by DEA in a single year. It amounts to more than 386 million deadly doses of fentanyl—enough to kill every American." "The fentanyl we see today is even deadlier than before. Fentanyl pills today are more potent. DEA laboratory testing in 2023 showed that 7 out of 10 pills tested contain a potentially deadly dose of fentanyl. This is an increase from 4 out of 10 pills in 2021 and 6 out of 10 pills in 2022. A potentially deadly dose is considered just two milligrams of fentanyl, which is approximately the amount that fits on the tip of a pencil." "The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is predicting record numbers of drug poisonings for 2023, with their latest estimate for the 12-month period ending June 2023 at 112,323 American lives lost. Nearly 70% of these drug poisonings are from fentanyl." "DEA has responded to this unprecedented threat with unprecedented action. DEA’s mission is to save American lives by defeating the two cartels that are responsible for the vast majority of fentanyl that is flooding our country: the Sinaloa Cartel and the Jalisco Cartel. DEA has built a new strategic layer of Counter Threat Teams to focus on each cartel and the illicit finance networks that fund them both. 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." # # # For full press release, go to DEA website: https://lnkd.in/grh5KZtp
