North Carolina -- With a large-scale drug problem in Maple Hill, Pender County Sheriff Carson Smith, Duplin County authorities and federal agents conducted an undercover investigation. More than 50 people, mostly Mexican and Honduran, were put behind bars. Guns, pot and cocaine were smuggled from Mexico to Houston on through Duplin County and into Pender County.
"A great deal, if not the majority, of drugs wee see coming in here are coming in by Hispanics across the Mexican-Texas border," Mr. Smith said.
