Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán has become an unlikely fashion influencer. Two years after Barabas made bank off its “Most Wanted Shirt” design, the drug lord’s designer daughter is attempting to profit off her father’s name with an El Chapo-inspired clothing brand.

Colorado is no stranger to spearheading relaxed drug legislation. After the state legalized marijuana in 2012, other states promptly followed suit, which reinforced a country-wide conversation over what drugs should and shouldn’t be strictly regulated. In its latest move, Denver could become the first city to decriminalize magic mushrooms after a petition gained enough signatures to add the measure […]
A fisherman in Florida has a big fish story backed up by a police report after he pulled 60 pounds of cocaine out of the ocean. The angler noticed a package floating underneath a dock in Islamorada, Florida while he was on his way back in on Dec. 29, according to ABC News. He used […]
New York’s former police commissioner Bill Bratton has a fairly strong opinion on the legalization of recreational marijuana: a no.
