Summary: Drug Bust

"Cocaine and crack are among the most addictive substances known to modern science, and they have already ruined the lives of millions of Americans" (Morganthau and Miller, 208). Cocaine and crack are both dangerous, harmful drugs. Though pleasurable effects can be obtained from these drugs, the use of crack and cocaine cannot be worth the actual consequences that are inflicted on mind and body. The bad effects of these drugs, by far outweigh the good. Because crack and cocaine are so closely related, it is important to have a firm understanding of both drugs.

During 1984 through 1994, 10 years into The Crack Epidemic, the homicide rate of African American males aged 14-17 doubled. Along with an increase of African American children in foster care, fetal death rates and weapon arrests. Roles lost in families and the community. Health and lifestyle of the African American communities depleting due to the powerful affects of crack cocaine. The African American community has been significantly affected by The Crack Epidemic in the areas of health and culture as a result of where the source of crack cocaine introduced itself in America, laws surrounding crack cocaine and the perception of the drug.

The War on Drugs, like the war on Terrorism, is a war that America may not be able to afford to win. For over forty years the United States has been fighting the War on Drugs and there is no end in sight. It has turned into a war that is about politics and economics rather than about drugs and criminals. The victims of this war are numerous; but perhaps they are not as numerous as those who benefit from the war itself.

In his book “The Cocaine Kids” Williams (1989) suggests that implementing ethnographical research is significant in order to disclose a detailed account of the cocaine kids, and their lifestyle. On a broad scale, ethnography is a research method that studies the culture of the subject at hand. When looking deeper, it also analyzes key social dynamics that can stem from structural factors such as hierarchical systems present in the community being researched. Similar to observational research, Williams made notes of the cocaine kids in their natural setting, while doing what they would normally do. This is to ensure that his presence does not raise suspicion and allows for quantitative measures including basic details of age, sex, and race;

Sub details-In some cases those who are smugglers all begin by taking drugs and the reason they might have taken it is because they in some type of way felt pressured by their so called “friends”.

Nowadays, when someone thinks of Colombia, they unfortunately almost always think of two things, coffee and cocaine (with its associated guerilla warfare). It is true that during the last 50 years these two products, one legal, and the other not, have been great monetary contributors to the Colombian economy. Coffee is Colombia’s principal agricultural product, and it is also the country’s second largest export. The production of coffee uses 300,000 farms and employs almost one million people (Steiner 6). Conversely, cocaine is a completely illegal product, but it earns almost twice as much money as coffee (Steiner 6). Also, in contrast with the production of coffee, cocaine uses fewer employees but earns

She sat down in her chair and waited for her boss to brief her about the next mission. Mr.Smith said, “As you all know, all of you have been looking up certain people for a good reason. This reason has to link to your next assignment. Julia you have been looking up facts about Mr. Gefish and Boris you have been studying a new drug that can cure any disease. Both of you will be an undercover drug store salesman because one of Mr. Gefish’s worker will deliver the drug to Maxwell Rowman, but we will find Rowman and take him to our headquarters and investigate him on why he needs the drug. The delivery is set for tonight at 10, so be ready by six so we can suit you guys up and go over the basic attacks. This meeting is dismissed. ”Everyone hurried out of the meeting room and went back to

Drug trafficking has been an ongoing epidemic in the United States, as well us other countries for an unimaginable amount of time. Illegal drugs varying from heroin and cocaine are primarily the main drugs that get smuggled in the United States from South America. Even marijuana and methamphetamine have been popular in the drug smuggling “industry”. These gangs go to a variety of different extents to get the job done. Drug trafficking increases the violence levels These drugs have been smuggled through the Southwest Border since the 1970s and are attempting to expand the distribution of those drugs into eastern U.S. markets. The countries of drug production have been seen as the worst affected by prohibition. In many countries worldwide, the illegal drug trafficking can be directly linked to high violent crimes. This is especially true in third world countries, but has still been seen as an issue for many developed countries all over the world.

It also effects the along with correctional system effects.to its high costs, Nearly all of the heroin produced in Mexico is destined for distribution in the United States.

Rumours were quickly spreading across the whole school. They’d heard people saying things about Kristen and Casey selling marijuana, the two girls always carrying drugs on them, the dumbest girls, etc. Their reputation had dropped a lot from intelligent and obedient young ladies to irresponsible sellers. These were only rumours that people started to make up. Kristen was still certain that Casey hadn’t explained the full story to her. On the next day of school Kristen and Casey stayed at the café for lunch. Since Kristen was very eager to know why the policemen came at Casey’s door she had once again decided to ask her best friend Casey. Kristen took her stuff and went and sat beside Casey. “Hey Casey,” Kristen Said. “Hi Kristen!” Replied Casey. “So you know about the police car incident you had the other day? I need to know what is going on.” Said Kristen straight up. Casey asked her what she knew about the incident so far. Immediately the words “possession of marijuana” that she had heard when she walked by Casey’s house popped in to her head. Kristen quietly asked Casey, “Does this have anything to do with drugs?” “Yes,” replied Casey. The bell rang just then and Casey and

The drug cartel based in Cali, Colombia, was one of the largest players in the multi-billion dollar worldwide cocaine industry. Although their operations are highly illegal, opposed by both Colombian and US law enforcement agencies, the cartel continues to run a very effective operation. The vast majority of this cocaine is destined for the US market. It reaches the US by numerous routes - by air, by sea, but mostly over land by Mexico. Once the cocaine reaches the United States, Cali has makes use of its distribution network to deliver the drugs wholesale to the retailers, typically ethnic crime gangs. The Cali cartel is similar in its methods with many of the Mexican cartels. Cali and the Mexican

I sat patiently in the 2015 Toyota Corolla, while the minutes ticked by without a quiver of my lips. The quiet air gave me time to think about what I was soon going to see. My excitement transcended the awkwardness and I was left with a smile, telling Bill I was thrilled to have this opportunity. Bill is Esther’s wife, whom is second in command at the DEA. As we approached the building, I could feel the butterflies dancing in my stomach. We passed security and were cleared to enter the building. I grabbed my pen and paper and pushed past the doors, greeting Esther with a warm smile.

There has always been a close association between drugs and crime. Drugs have been seen as a way out of suffering in one’s life and so as long as there is suffering there will always be a market for drugs. The struggle to keep one’s self sane when away from a substance they need can cause them to do crazy and even violent things to others. Things like murdering someone because they did not have proper control of themselves is not something unheard of by any means. These people can been seen as both victims and criminals, as they were not in a sound state of mind when doing these actions, however them doing the actions does not mean they should get off scot-free. The users are only one side of the coin, the other is the drug dealers. The dealers do not have to be selling purely illegal drugs, they may be selling prescription drugs too, but in the pursuit of their own survival in a struggling life, they turn to selling substances to others. By doing so they can even amass a fortune, but this is still a crime, and what people will do to try to get all this potential money can span from robbing to murder. The articles I read from different media support the fact there is indeed a tie with crime and drugs, being that an increase of drugs on the street leads to more crime.
