Methamphetamine wreckage in Montana

New West has a bizarre 6 part story of prostitution and methamphetamines in rural Montana. I've heard of meth labs near my old home town in Minnesota, but meth is a rural phenomenon that began after I left, so the disruption and destruction that meth addiction can cause in small towns was new to me, especially when the economy is failing. In this particular story a local businessman is taking advantage of young women who need money for the drug. After a woman is killed in a car accident, her mother had the courage to gather evidence and go to the police. (via Mark A. R. Kleiman)
