Post Time News is reporting the illegal drug crystal methamphetamine has penetrated the Roaring Fork Valley communities of Basalt, El Jebel, and Glenwood Springs. “What we’re seeing is indicative of the trend the guys who used to deal coke are now dealing coke and meth,” one law enforcement official familiar with the roundup told Post Time News. “People are saying I’ll take the meth. We saw meth in Rifle, Silt, and those places but we never saw it here in Basalt and in the valley.” The bust comes with major implications for the tide of Mexican immigrants sweeping the valley.
