U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents in the El Paso Sector say they've been catching women drug couriers at the border with fentanyl and cocaine smuggled inside their body cavities.   Peer-to-peer car rental services are being taken advantage of by criminals. Border Patrol says criminals are getting a hold of the vehicles and using them for drug and human smuggling.  North America has traditionally been the point at which the drug routes end. The Colombian drug cartels have made most of their profit with cocaine on the American scene; the Mexican drug cartels have made their profit with marijuana in the United States; the Golden Triangle has reaped its share of the profits with heroin in the United States; and the outlaw motorcycle clubs have made their profit through the production and shipment of amphetamines and methamphetamines in both the United States and Canada. What is changing is the method by which these groups are getting their products into the destination countries and the types of drugs that are in demand. To move cocaine to the United States, the Colombians have established vast networks with the Mexican cartels.
