US Indicts 22 Chinese Nationals, Four Companies and Three Americans in Fentanyl Supply-Chain Case
The operation, named Box Cutter, targeted fentanyl supply chains, seizing enough fentanyl to potentially kill 70 million people, and involved indictments of 22 Chinese nationals and 4 companies.
- On Wednesday in Cincinnati, the FBI, DEA, and U.S. Attorney's Office announced indictments against 25 people, including 22 Chinese nationals, four Chinese companies, and three Americans, suspected in an international fentanyl trafficking ring.
- The indictments followed an investigation beginning in Dayton, Ohio, which expanded to mainland China where chemical firms marketed and sold fentanyl precursor substances used in drug manufacturing.
- Operation Box Cutter resulted in the confiscation of a quantity of fentanyl powder sufficient to cause fatal overdoses for tens of millions of Americans, along with fentanyl pills capable of killing hundreds of thousands more; the operation also uncovered associated bank accounts and cryptocurrency networks that support the trafficking.
- FBI Director Kash Patel stated, "We're done playing Whack-a-Mole," emphasizing a program aimed at ending the fentanyl pandemic by dismantling production at its source and holding all involved accountable.
- Attorney General Pam Bondi highlighted the importance of safeguarding Americans by targeting global drug supply routes and pledged to prevent Chinese firms from sending harmful substances into the country, while demanding prompt and thorough justice for all parties involved.
