"Mexican Drug Cartels' Infiltration of America's Last Great Place"

Mexican drug cartels have targeted Montana, particularly indigenous communities, flooding the state with super potent meth and deadly fentanyl. The drug crisis has hit Montana's Indian reservations hard, with high rates of addiction and limited law enforcement. Cartel associates have targeted single women on reservations and used their homes as bases of operations. The reservations, sovereign nations with restricted local law enforcement, suffer from a lack of resources and accountability, creating a "Wild, Wild West" situation.
