Just a few days ago, a major drug ring http://click.janbrewer.com/t/535073/89928433/8179/0/ was broken up and 39 Mexican cartel operatives suspected of running 40,000 pounds of marijuana through southern Arizona were indicted. This is merely the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Arizona’s drug trafficking and border violence problem.

Narcotics prosecutions in Arizona have risen 202% in 16 months, http://click.janbrewer.com/t/535073/89928433/8180/0/ however, according to the Transactional Records Access Clearing House, there will be 1,080 prosecutions refused this year in Tucson alone. This represents over one-third of all unprosecuted cases in the Southwest. Until January of 2009, any smugglers carrying under the threshold of 500 pounds were often not prosecuted - a fact that smugglers knew all too well! http://click.janbrewer.com/t/535073/89928433/8181/0/
