The War on Meth in Tennessee
Tennessee is now officially #1 in the nation for meth labs, as methamphetamine has been identified as the largest drug threat by most law enforcement professionals in the country. Tommy Farmer, director of the Tennessee Meth Task Force explains how the manufacturing of meth impacts everyone, from the environmental hazards it imposes, to the chemical byproducts, the threat to children, and the laws put in place to curb access to vital ingredients. He describes how the drug effects the human body, how you can spot a possible meth lab location, and what's being done to put a stop to what has become a statewide drug epidemic.
