Seattle Police Department makes major drug bust: Kilos of fentanyl, $41K cash
by Theron Zahn KOMO News Mar 1 ,2025
$51.6 billion (every 12 months) US Dept. of Homeland Security fails to keep 9.2 kilograms of Fentanyl from arriving in Seattle:
“According to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), two milligrams is a lethal dose of Fentanyl. The suspects had over 9.2 kilograms.”
KOMO goes with the press release style of news reporting where a statement is prepared by whatever agency was involved in the latest policy update, drug bust/federal grant money award, etc.
Newspeople post this statement as is. A 5th grade book report would require more in the way of asking questions.
