TACOMA, Wash. (KOMO) — A federal investigation into a drug-trafficking operation with ties to a white supremacist prison gang led federal agents to seize nearly two million doses of fentanyl, more than 200 pounds of methamphetamine, and more than 200 guns. They also made 24 arrests. Federal officials said the operation moved drugs from Mexico through Washington state, Idaho, and Alaska. 'Not only are we seeing the drugs coming in from Mexico, but we're also seeing the sheer amount of weapons that we seize, some of those are going down to Mexico to fuel the violence of the cartels down there in Mexico,' Acting Special Agent in Charge Jacob Galvin with the Drug Enforcement Administration in Seattle said.
