Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) officials in New England say they arrested more than 170 members of the Sinaloa Cartel during a recent crackdown operation. The arrests led to the seizure of more than 22,000 counterfeit pills, fentanyl powder and packaging branded with the Sinaloa Cartel logo.
DEA Special Agent in Charge for the New England Field Division told 25News in Boston that the Sinaloa Cartel is “public enemy number one in New England.” Forget told the local news outlet that during a week-long nationwide crackdown, 171 “cartel members” were arrested in the New England area alone.
