Drug trafficker gets five years in U.S. prison

Drug trafficker gets five years in U.S. prison: "Nen Angel Cruces, 23, was convicted in the same cross-border smuggling ring that saw North Vancouver's Krysta Edwards sentenced to five years late last month.
The pair and others were transporting the party drug BZP, as well as ecstasy, across the B.C.-Washington border to a Bellingham storage facility they rented, and then arranging shipments to the Chicago area by train.
BZP, which is often sold by B.C. gangs as ecstasy, is still legal in Canada, though it has been added to the banned list in the U.S., the U.K., New Zealand, Australia and other countries.
U.S. District Judge Richard A. Jones told Cruces on Friday that 'this court considers BZP to be a very dangerous drug.'"
