Episode Details

An overview of post-war transatlantic heroin trafficking. Collaborations between French labs and the Sicilian Mafia formed an airtight, secure system ensuring safe transfers, structured payments, and escape routes. The American Mafia monopolized wholesale, distributing to dealers. Adulteration with neutral substances maximized weight and profits. This dynamic created exponential price surges from $700 inside Lebanon/Syria up to $225,000 for consumers on US streets.
