The Justice Department’s watchdog is launching a sweeping review into the DEA’s controversial “let it walk” tactic—deliberately allowing fentanyl shipments to reach streets to build bigger cases. Critics warn this puts public safety at risk, especially as fentanyl is dubbed a “weapon of mass destruction.” Reports reveal DEA agents in New Mexico monitored but didn’t seize major shipments for two years, with insiders calling it community poisoning amid an opioid crisis. The review, now broader than initially requested, could expose similar practices nationwide, while New Mexico investigates potential state law violations and battles DOJ resistance to access critical records.
