Drug interdiction efforts in jails and prisons have increased, but methods of introducing drugs into facilities have become more sophisticated. By definition, interdiction is “the steady bombardment of enemy positions and communications lines for the purpose of delaying and disorganizing progress.” Toward that end, facilities have approached these efforts through many avenues.

Most facilities’ drug interdiction efforts fall into two major categories: treatment of the drug-addicted individual, and identification and disruption of the illegal drug trade. Two primary pathways drugs get into correctional facilities are deliveries — mail or supplies — and people/visitors — contractors and staff. Most resources are spent in the pursuit of interrupting those avenues of introduction.
