Summary
Investigates the meth rampage in America: the appalling impact on individuals, families and communities, and the difficult of controlling an essential ingredient in meth - ephedrine and pseudoephedrine - sold legally in over-the-counter cold remedies. In 2002, The Oregonian's editors decided to go after the story behind the story: How and why did the meth epidemic get so out of control?
