Over the weekend the Alameda County Sheriff's Department announced the seizure of 92 pounds of fentanyl during raids in Oakland and Hayward, and investigators believe those drugs were bound for San Francisco.
Over the weekend the Alameda County Sheriff’s DepartmentIt is a massive haul, but even those behind the investigation worry that it won’t put a dent in the drug supply.To try to put 92 pounds in a street-level perspective in San Francisco, consider that Tenderloin police have frequently been pulling more than a kilo a week off the street.
It is a look into the supply chain that is common knowledge on the street. San Francisco’s notorious open-air drug market is largely supplied by distribution centers in the East Bay, usually receiving product from beyond our borders.“From China, then down through Mexico,” Kelly explained. “Through the cartel trafficking rings, up into the United States.”
Kilmer said the bust is huge, possibly enough to supply 1,000 addicts for one year. It still may not change the market. And that is one more challenge posed by fentanyl. On top of its potency and low price point, it is very easy to come up with more.
