Drug Rehab Nebraska (cont..)
Nearly 2,100 individuals were admitted to Nebraska drug rehab programs for cocaine abuse from 2003-2005. Mexican travels to Texas and then on to Nebraska as well as other states. The cocaine is smuggled via motor vehicle, mail services and courier. Mexican and other Hispanic drug trafficking organizations direct the transport of cocaine to Nebraska. Cocaine in the form of crack is a significant issue for law enforcement in more metropolitan areas of Nebraska. Almost 157 kilos of cocaine were seized in Nebraska in 2006.
With 5,846 admissions to Nebraska drug rehab centers for methamphetamine abuse, it is obvious that methamphetamine is the most serious drug-related menace in Nebraska. Methamphetamine is present in virtually every township in the state. Hispanic criminal groups have inundated the Hispanic population with methamphetamine from Border States. Methamphetamine is manufactured in the state as well. There is a lot of farmland in the state and inadequate law enforcement resources. This combination makes the state ideal for criminals to manufacture this deadly drug. From 2002-2006, there were 928 meth-lab incidents in the state. Areas like Omaha have also seen more ice recently. 33.3 kilos of methamphetamine were impounded in federal drug seizures in 2006.

Nebraska drug rehabs from 2003-2005 admitted nearly 3,000 individuals for marijuana abuse. Marijuana makes its way into Nebraska’s illicit drug market in two ways; it is either smuggled into the state or it is cultivated in the state. Mexican organizations specializing in the transport of illicit drugs are responsible for smuggling marijuana into Nebraska. There is also a regular supply of marijuana available from cultivators within the state. Crops may be grown in outdoor plots or indoors using aquiculture methods. The sale of marijuana is attributed to various criminal groups throughout the state. Over 3,000 kilos of marijuana were removed from the illicit drug market by federal seizures in 2006.
Approximately 2,182 admittances to Nebraska drug rehab facilities from 2003-2005 could be attributed to prescription or club drug abuse. As in much of the rest of the nation, OxyContin abuse is a serious problem in Nebraska. Other prescription drugs like Hydrocodone and cough medicines containing codeine are frequently sought after for illegal use. Criminal groups and individuals use a variety of means to get prescription drugs. Examples of the tactics used are prescription forgeries and doctor shopping. Club drugs remain a problem in the state. Often abusers of these substances mistakenly believe the drugs are safe to use. There is evidence to suggest that large shipments of ecstasy have been smuggled into Nebraska from Florida and Arizona.
