Title:Officials: Ecstasy is back, and it's laced with meth
Summary: Ectasy pills are coming back, but now they are being laced with meth. They believe that since meth is cheaper to produce, drug dealers use meth as a substitute for ecstacy. "More than 55% of ectasy samples seized in the United States last year contained meth, according to the Office of National Drug Control Policy, compared with 44.5 percent the previous year." Teens report that getting these pills is very easy as long as you ask the right people. Not only is drug trafficing dangerous and scary, the fact that drugs are so easy for young teens to get is concerning for brain development and mortality rate. These drugs continue to come in mostly from Canada whether it is by car, plane, or ship.
