Fentanyl and designer drugs are being widely trafficked by drug cartels, and methamphetamine is also making a comeback. 

Those are just some of the observations of Richard Tucker, former Assistant Special Agent in Charge of the United States Drug Enforcement Administration. He says now that the borders have reopened following COVID, the cartels that had stockpiled drugs are using different delivery mechanisms.

He says while drug use is widespread, recovery is possible but stresses the person who is addicted must do it for themselves, not because someone else wants them to.
