Watch the water. Q
 [8ch.net] In 2014, the Environmental Protection Agency was worried enough about fentanyl and carfentanil (A unit of carfentanil is 100 times as potent as the same amount of fentanyl, 5,000 times as potent as a unit of heroin and 10,000 times as potent as a unit of morphine) being used by terrorists that it published instructions for taking samples of the substances, including from drinking water, following "homeland security events." Deadly drug fentanyl has been tested as chemical weapon by military for decades Boston authorities said they seized more than 33 pounds of fentanyl--enough to kill millions of people--in connection with one of Massachusetts' biggest drug busts ever. In announcing the results of a six-month wiretap probe called "Operation High Hopes," prosecutors said the synthetic opioid was being sold on the street by a drug gang with links to Mexico's notorious Sinaloa Cartel, the drug organization once led by Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán. "I want to be clear about the size and scope here," District Attorney Daniel Conley said at a news conference Thursday. "Massachusetts' fentanyl trafficking statute covers quantities greater than 10 grams. That threshold represents less than 1/1000 of the quantity we've taken off the street." 33 pounds of fentanyl -- enough to wipe out Massachusetts -- seized in Boston (CNN) -- Two men have been sentenced to prison for possessing nearly 100 pounds of the drug fentanyl -- enough to kill the entire population of New Jersey and New York City, officials said. Fentanyl is a powerful opioid that is 50 to 100 times more potent than morphine and 30 to 50 times more potent than heroin, and a dose as small as a quarter of a milligram can be fatal. New Jersey authorities said that the 45 kilos of fentanyl, seized in June 2017, contained more than 18 million lethal doses. It was the largest seizure ever in the state. "The 100 pounds of fentanyl trafficked into our state by these drug dealers could have generated enough lethal doses to kill the entire populations of New Jersey and New York City combined," New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal said in a statement. 2 men caught with enough Fentanyl to poison all of NYC, New Jersey So my question is, why is more fentanyl then could possibly be sold on the street being brought into the USA? To poison the water supply? Posted by: G. Whotha5763 2018-02-27 |
