DEA still dubious despite fresh report of nightmare drug Krokodil surfacing in Illinois

This article displays the skepticism of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) with regards to the flesh-eating drug Krokodil having reached American soil. The drug, which displays a similar high to heroine with extremely gruesome side-affects, like gangrenous limbs, has not been accepted by the DEA as a threat in America, despite possible cases that have recently surfaced in Joliet, IL. The author, Joshua Rhett Miller, brings some factual claims into play when he articulates information that the drug could be on US soil since three women were emitted into a suburban hospital displaying the similar disgusting skin deformities to those who use the drug in eastern Europe. The DEA first brought light to the threat of this drug in the world when they said in 2011 that they are monitoring its growth in Russia.  However, they have not said anything regarding its presence in the US. Regardless, something is happening in the US that needs to be taken care of.
