	An overview on methamphetamine trends and statistics in Minnesota is presented by Agent Tim O'Malley from the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. Agent O'Malley discusses how Minnesota law enforcement officials have seen a more than 20 percent increase in the number of meth labs found in 2000 than in 1999. In addition, because manufacturing meth is very dangerous, it has become a public safety issue affecting everyone in the state.
