Fronteras: The Drug War

The Fronteras News Desk is looking at the escalating drug war.  Drug traffickers in Mexico are finding new ways of  getting their product into the United States.  The DEA and other law enforcement groups are trying to stay one step ahead.  We look at some of the newest methods being used by both the criminals and the good guys.   Nevada Public Radio, and six other public radio stations throughout the region, launched the Fronteras project--A regional multimedia news project covering the American Southwest.
