NYT: Drugs in the FAST Lane
Another example of a shipment of illegal drugs from Mexico coming through via the Free And Secure Trade channels. These are important examples of two things. First, CBP being alert and doing its job by finding these attempts at smuggling. Second, the fact that ultimately C-TPAT, FAST, and other trusted shipper programs depend upon people. That means there will always be risk.
