(USGovernment-News.Com, April 24, 2016 ) Nashville, TN -- According to Newsweek, U.S. Customs and Border Protection recently confiscated 51 pounds of meth from the rear tires of an SUV after drug sniffing dogs indicated the presence of illicit substances. The driver, a 46 year old Dallas woman, told Customs officials the meth was headed into Mexico from the U.S. when her vehicle was selected for a secondary examination. The discovery was made when authorities noticed irregularities in the tires' shape. The shipment was estimated to be worth millions, leading the driver, Matilda Perez, to face charges for smuggling.
Smuggling operations just like the one intercepted by U.S. Customs and Border Protection destroy lives, families, and communities. The efforts of substance abuse recovery centers across the U.S. help combat the ill effects of drug trafficking, including facilities providing addiction treatment in Nashville. Drug Rehab Nashville, a leading provider of such services, praises the efforts of U.S. Customs and Border Protection and all others working to end the suffering caused by illicit substances. Combined, these two different approaches can end the substance abuse epidemic plaguing the country.
A representative of Drug Rehab Nashville comments: "A key component of the battle to end substance abuse in the U.S. and around the world is the efforts to keep illicit substances off the streets. Agents with U.S. Customs and Border Protection are the first line of defense in stopping drug smuggling attempts into the U.S.- and out of the country. While treatment can alleviate the suffering of those under the influence of a substance abuse disorder, stymying the supply is key to ending the epidemic."
