"After testing the contents, detectives determined the package contained about 7 ounces of ayahuasca powder, which contains the hallucinogen dimethyltryptamine, or DMT; more than 1 ounce of coca leaves, a source of cocaine; about 6.4 ounces of mescaline powder; and roughly 3.6 ounces of a green cocaine variant. All are illegal in the United States, police said. Investigators obtained a search warrant for the home the package was addressed to and an arrest warrant for the resident, Tahryn Janet Anderson."
"According to the news release, detectives found about 1.9 ounces of gamma-hydroxybutyrate, commonly known as GHB, along with drug paraphernalia and packaging materials during the search. "Law enforcement agencies, including the DEA and postal inspectors, actively monitor packages using advanced tracking systems, drug-sniffing dogs, and data analytics, making it surprisingly easy to get caught," the news release said. "Beyond legal repercussions, the risk of interception and investigation is high, and those involved can face both federal and state prosecution.""
