The Cartel Crisis at America’s Northern Border — Narcos Target Tribal Lands | Katarina Szulc

Описание: On today's episode, Katarina reports from Montana’s northern border near the Blackfeet Nation, where vast stretches of open land are being exploited for drug and human trafficking.

She’s joined by retired California Game Warden John Nores, who spent decades confronting cartel operations on public and tribal lands. You can see John's book, Hidden War, 2nd edition: How Special Operations Game Wardens are Reclaiming America's Wildlands from the Drug Cartels, here: https://www.amazon.com/Hidden-War-2nd...

Katarina also shares the story of Marla Ollinger, a grandmother who tragically lost both of her children to fentanyl and now raises her grandchildren while navigating the dangers and fallout of the ongoing crisis in rural and tribal communities.
