Illinois Drug Situation Information
Illinois drug rehabDuring 2006, 41% of the Federally-sentenced defendants in Illinois had committed a drug offense. Approximately one-third of the drug cases involved powder cocaine. Here is the general drug availability information from the DEA:

Chicago is the major transportation hub and distribution center for illegal drugs throughout the Midwest, due to its geographic location and multi-faceted transportation infrastructure. Commercial trucks, passenger vehicles, package delivery services, air packages or couriers, and railways are the most common means traffickers use to transport drugs into Chicago. The majority of the investigations conducted by the Chicago Division target one of the following drug trafficking groups: Mexico-based poly-drug organizations, Colombian cocaine and heroin trafficking organizations, and Nigerian/West African groups trafficking in Southeast and Southwest Asian heroin. Chicago-based street gangs such as the Gangster Disciples, Vice Lords, and Latin Kings control the distribution and retail sale of cocaine, heroin, and marijuana. Most law enforcement agencies in Illinois cite the violent crime associated with gang-related drug trafficking as the most serious criminal threat to the state. Violent crime associated with street gangs, while declining in some major urban areas, is increasing in suburban and rural areas as these gangs expand their drug markets. Mexico-based trafficking groups are transporting methamphetamine into Illinois mostly from California and Mexico. Methamphetamine is the principle drug of concern in the rural areas of central and southern Illinois.

The diversion of legitimate pharmaceuticals is a significant problem in Illinois. The problem of purchasing pharmaceuticals over the Internet has grown dramatically. Ritalin®, a controversial drug prescribed for attention deficit disorder in children, may be gaining popularity as a recreational drug for teenagers. The most commonly diverted pharmaceutical drugs continue to be those containing hydrocordone, alprazolam, and phentermine. There has also been an increase in the abuse of diazepam (valium®), especially 10 mg strength tablets. OxyContin® remains a highly abused substance in the state. With increased media attention on OxyContin®, there has been a shift to an increased use and abuse of methadone.
