Virginia Drug Rehab Info

Virginia plays a major role in Colonial American history. America's first President, George Washington, was born in Virginia. The country's political capitol of Washington D.C. can be found in the northern part of the state. Virginia is also responsible for a large percent of America's tobacco production. The state unfortunately suffers from the high amount of drug and alcohol abuse that is spreading across the country. Drugs, contraband, weapons, and drug-related proceeds have traveled along the east coast for years. Virginia is a common location for "spillover" drug and drug transportation, due to its closeness to Interstate-95.

Cocaine, crack cocaine, and drug-related violence caused the most severe threat to Virginia. The abuse of MDMA is a large and increasing problem in the state. Also, the number of methamphetamine labs seized each year is increasing. Mexican trafficking organizations can be blamed for the majority of cocaine, methamphetamine and marijuana distribution that occurs in Virginia.

The number of crack cocaine related violent crimes is causing a huge concern to law enforcement officials in Virginia. A large percent of cocaine is Virginia is made available by Colombian and Dominican drug trafficking organizations in New York City. Local traffickers are becoming more and more prevalent and rely on Mexico to supply cocaine for them to distribute.

Heroin is most commonly found in the Richmond and Tidewater areas of the state. Many young people have been experimenting with heroin in the past few years. The amount of teens abusing heroin has not increased, but has not decreased either. Much of Virginia's heroin supply is of higher-than-average purity. In Norfolk, Virginia, heroin is packaged in gelatin capsules which are put into small, marked zip-loc baggies and distributed to heroin abusers.

Clandestine methamphetamine labs remain low in number, but are still increasing. The southwestern areas of Virginia, as well as West Virginia, North Carolina, and Kentucky are the locations of most of the methamphetamine labs in the area. The majority of the methamphetamine abusers in Virginia live in the Shenandoah Valley region. The region was the first area that Mexican immigrants traveled to in Virginia. "Ice" has also become the drug of choice of many abusers in clubs and raves.
