Wednesday, September 9, 2026
Two Chinese nationals were charged with shipping synthetic opioids and cannabinoids to U.S. co-defendants, who soaked paper in the drugs and mailed the paper to prison inmates. The scheme involved multiple shipments of the synthetic substances across international borders. U.S. authorities did not immediately release additional details about arrests, charges, or the specific prisons targeted.
