A Michigan man was among five suspects arrested and charged in a drug smuggling ring. The suspects allegedly tried to sneak prescription drugs into the U.S. and distribute them in west Michigan. Federal investigators tracked at least $12 million in proceeds to the scheme, which would be paid for through cryptocurrencies. Defendants face five-year prison sentences and fines up to $250,000 for the smuggling charges. Prescription drugs and steroids were used to treat the short-term effects of steroids. Most of the drugs were manufactured outside the U.S. They were shipped in bulk using false statements that wrongly declared what was inside the packages. Customers were told to not include any words, names, or information relating to the purchase when they made the payment. Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin were one form of payment that was used. Other networks like Zelle and Cash App were also accepted.
