Two Buena Park men have been arrested and charged with multiple felonies after authorities confiscated over 800 pounds of methamphetamines and nearly 190 pounds of cocaine, according to the Orange County District Attorney. They say this is Orange County’s largest drug bust in 16 years.
Authorities also recovered “enough fentanyl to kill 4.7 million people,” according to the statement. A lethal dose is considered to be as little as 2 milligrams, and officers found 20.5 pounds of fentanyl.

.....If convicted on all charges, they face a maximum sentence of 37 years and four months in prison. They are currently in custody with bail set at $5 million and their preliminary hearing is scheduled for June 7 at the North Justice Center in Fullerton. They have pleaded not guilty.

El Paso, Texas: Agents Seize 548 Pounds of Mexican Cartel Liquid Meth
Excerpt:
U.S. Customs and Border Protection Officers working at the Port of Ysleta Cargo Facility intercepted 548 pounds of liquid meth with an estimated street value of $3 million.
“This significant seizure is a perfect example of the work our CBP Officers do on a daily basis to protect our communities and nation,” said CBP Ysleta Port Director Arnoldo Gomez.
On March 30, a 47-year-old male Mexican national driving a tractor trailer applied for entry into the U.S. from Mexico via the Ysleta Port of Entry cargo facility. The primary CBP Officer referred the driver for a secondary inspection of the commercial vehicle.
.....Further examination led CBP Officers to discover the tank to be full of a substance which tested positive for the properties of methamphetamine. The liquid methamphetamine, once safely extracted from the fuel tank and secured in containers was seized by CBP.
No arrests were immediately made. The case remains under investigation.
