“fentanyl output didn't diminish it increased during the code epidemic into mexico and the reason why that is is because that's being pumped into low-grade heroin that's then being supplied to the u.s”

The cartel's pivot to fentanyl production was driven by the desire to maximize profits and gain a competitive edge in the illegal drug market.

“And it was the biggest bet and that’s why the cenol cartel grew so much. They were the first in the on the fentinel game.”
