‘Huge and sophisticated’ operation: Mexican cartel meth lab busted in Atlanta suburb

About 72,000 people died in America in 2017 from drugs, mainly illicit drugs brought in by the Mexican cartels. But now, with meth growing in popularity among all the cartels, they are cooking it on our soil, using networks of illegal aliens brought in for that purpose.
