Drug Subs: NatGeo looks at 'em

NatGeo looks Inside: Cocaine Submarines: Facts:
It is estimated that nearly 2.1 million Americans use cocaine regularly every year.
***
# In 2008, about 70,000 pounds of cocaine were seized from semi-subs.
***
# In the last three years over 120 drug subs have been detected between the coast of Colombia and Mexico.


I spent a big chunk of the morning observing a criminal court and the number of charges of cocaine possession with or without the intent to distribute was impressive.
