Congress report finds agencies double counting cocaine seizures
A GAO investigation finds Coast Guard Customs and Defense Department credit the same seizures, inflating totals. The study reviewed 26 cocaine seizures from 1998 to 2000 across the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico and Pacific, noting overlapping agency tallies and lacking central auditing. Sen. Jeff Sessions urges a full accounting of interdiction funding and effectiveness. Federal drug seizure figures for 1998 1999 and 2000 are cited from ONDCP data.
