Law enforcement agencies in the United States announced the largest seizure of chemical precursors in U.S. history, at a Sept. 3 news conference in Houston.

U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro spoke to reporters while standing in front of 1,300 barrels of chemicals, and asked those in attendance to “imagine bodies where those barrels are,” saying the work of law enforcement would save lives by keeping drugs such as fentanyl off the streets.
