Subject: Episode # 41, Money The Root Of All Evil, Narco.
LPolice News Countdown: 1. DEA special agent says heroin, synthetic opioids a “main focus” for agency. 2. Investigators “looking at” upstate physicians for possible over prescribing.
3.DEA announces enhanced focus on Great Plains amid state's largest-ever fentanyl bust.
Host Alpha Mike dedicates the show to the memory of Enrique S. "Kiki" Camarena Salazar.
In response to America’s growing drug problem, Congress passed the Controlled Substances Act (CSA), Title II of the Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act of 1970, Thus the foundation of the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA). Creation of the DEA (July 1, 1973) President Richard Nixon declared “an all-out global war on the drug menace” and sent Reorganization Plan No. 2 to Congress. “Right now,” he pointed out, “the federal government is fighting the war on drug abuse under a distinct handicap, for its efforts are those of a loosely confederated alliance facing a resourceful, elusive, worldwide enemy. Certainly, the cold-blooded underworld networks that funnel narcotics from suppliers all over the world are no respecters of the bureaucratic dividing lines that now complicate our anti-drug efforts.”
The Collapse of the DEA Miami Office Building (1974) The DEA was still a new agency when tragedy struck the Miami Field Division. On Aug. 5, 1974, at 10:24 a.m., the roof of the Miami office came crashing down, killing seven and trapping others in a pile of twisted steel and concrete. Between 125 and 150 people worked in the building.
Training:The National Training Institute, the DEA’s first training program, was located at DEA headquarters, 1405 “Eye” Street in Washington, D.C. At that time, training was divided into three
major divisions: special agent training, police training, and international training. Training was carried out in a three-story bank building adjacent to DEA headquarters that had been converted for training purposes. The building had a gymnasium located on the first floor, lockers and showers in the basement, and a 5-point firing range on the second floor. Special agent trainees were housed in hotels within walking distance of DEA headquarters.
Afghanistan Five Pillar Plan(2004) On Nov. 17, 2004, DEA joined with coalition partners, the State Department, and the Department of Defense in announcing its involvement in the U.S. Embassy Kabul Counternarcotics Implementation Plan. This represented an expansion of the DEA-led 19-country Operation Containment multilateral strategy begun in 2002 to choke off the flow of drugs and precursor chemicals into and out of Afghanistan before they can spread to broader markets.
“Chapo” GuzmanReward (2004) On Dec. 20, 2004, DEA announced up to a $5 million reward through the State Department’s Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs for information leading to the arrest and prosecution of Joaquin Guzman-Loera, a.k.a. “Chapo” Guzman.

Alpha Mike, talks about he's experience in developing policy with his former agency, where ever word was placed under a microscope. Alpha talks about PowerDMS and the numbers. Why does it take so long to create a policy? Basic process should be research, development, review, and approval process.
