The violent death of a teenager in Flagstaff, Arizona shocked the small city. That the death appears to be drug-related was not as surprising, at least not to area teens.

"Local teens contacted by the Daily Sun are well aware of the prevalence of drugs, saying it's easy to get their hands on their substance of choice, often from dealers who are their peers. Local authorities acknowledge that teens have a role in the drug trade..."

A few high school students admitted that they could probably get just about anything they wanted within an hour from someone at their school. The students said they rarely keep drugs on their persons, preferring instead to conduct their business from their cars. Source: Arizona Daily Sun
