Illegal immigrant stopped for speeding in Nevada is found with enough fentanyl to kill state's population TWICE
Francisco Joel Garcia Farias, 26, was charged with federal drug-trafficking offences after a Lincoln County deputy stopped him on a rural highway and a sniffer dog detected the cache. Authorities say his truck contained roughly 30 pounds of fentanyl and 677 pounds of methamphetamine — a combined street value of around $2 million. Prosecutors warn the fentanyl alone represents seven million potentially lethal doses.
