It seems like Mexican cartels are at odds over what is perhaps their most high-profile illegal activity at the moment: the production and trafficking of fentanyl into the United States, an often-lethal drug that has been the main cause of addiction and overdose deaths in the country over the past years.
A new report by InSight Crime details that while a powerful faction of the Sinaloa Cartel, known as the Chapitos -as its run by sons of notorious drug lord Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, now imprisoned in the U.S.- is seeking to crack down on fentanyl production, other criminal organizations have moved their operations further up north to escape their sphere of influence.
