Drug
Situation: Due to its close proximity to the Pacific Rim and
shared border with Canada, Alaska is both a transshipment point for
controlled substances to the continental United States and a consumer
state. Historically, drug trends documented in the other states are
eventually documented in Alaska. This includes the growing threat of
methamphetamine, Ecstasy, GHB and other "Predatory Drugs." Alaska has
the highest per capita incidence of alcoholism, rape, and suicide in the
United States, partially attributable to controlled substance abuse.
Cocaine:
There are many different cocaine trafficking organizations in Alaska.
Some of the largest ones are predominantly Mexican and Dominican groups,
however Eastern Europeans are also involved. East coast Albanian
organized crime groups have recently begun to distribute cocaine into
Alaska. Most cocaine appears to come into Alaska from the West Coast of
the U.S. One cocaine smuggling organization in Alaska offered to sell
one kilogram of cocaine for as high as $39,000. Cocaine and other drugs
are distributed throughout the State mainly from Anchorage and
Fairbanks, all the way to remote fishing villages and northern rural
areas.
Heroin:
Evidence of heroin has declined due to much of the user population now
illegally acquiring and using OxyContin. Opium continues to be
transshipped through Alaska from the Far East/Pacific Rim countries.
 Methamphetamine:
Alaska is experiencing an increase in the availability of crystal
methamphetamine. Small toxic labs continue to be found throughout the
state. The pseudoephedrine reduction method is the common manufacturing
method used. Availability seems to be increasing, both from local labs
and from methamphetamine mailed or shipped into the state by various
methods, mostly from the Western U.S. Alaska, along with other states in
the Seattle Division, is experiencing an increase in the availability of
crystal methamphetamine.
Predatory
Drugs: There is recent evidence of large quantities of GBL
being transshipped through Alaska from Thailand to various "lower 48"
states. MDMA (methylene-dioxy-methamphetamine ), also known as Ecstasy,
is a growing threat throughout the state. Prior to 1999, there were no
reports or direct evidence of large quantities of MDMA in any form. In
recent years, MDMA seizures have increased dramatically. Raves continue
to occur in Alaska, with the accompanying use of Predatory Drugs found
at these events. In late 2003 a female died in Anchorage, AK from an
overdose of GHB. LSD remains available in the state, mostly in the
university areas.
Marijuana:
Marijuana is the most abused and widespread illegal drug in
Alaska. Local law enforcement can only estimate the extent of marijuana
abuse because less than 5% of the marijuana in Alaska is grown outdoors.
This makes detection much more difficult. Recently, BC Bud marijuana
from British Columbia, Canada has begun to make its way to Alaska along
the Transcontinental Highway.
Other Drugs:The
diversion of various controlled substances regulated by prescription is
growing. Alaska is one of the top five purchasing states for five of the
top twelve diverted drugs, to include Fentanyl, D-Amphetamine, Oxycodone,
Methadone and Meperidine. Benzodiazepine is also widely abused. Internet
purchases of controlled substances, from both domestic and international
sites, are on the rise.

DEA Regional Enforcement Teams:
This program was
designed to augment existing DEA division resources by targeting drug
organizations operating in the United States where there is a lack of
sufficient local drug law enforcement. This Program was conceived in
1999 in response to the threat posed by drug trafficking organizations
that have established networks of cells to conduct drug trafficking
operations in smaller, non-traditional trafficking locations in the
United States. As of January 31, 2005, there have been 27 deployments
nationwide, and one deployment in the U.S. Virgin Islands, resulting in
671 arrests. There have been no RET deployments in the State of Alaska.
