Kiki Camarena was an 11-year veteran of the DEA in the eighties. He was assigned the job of investigating the Mexican drug cartels. After many years of undercover work, and on the brink of taking down a multi-billion dollar organization, Camarena was captured and brutally tortured and murdered. In honor of Camarena, Red Ribbon Week was founded to show the world that sobriety and abstinence can be achieved. Thousands of children and adults pledge every year to remain drug-free by wearing red ribbons. Unfortunately, drug and alcohol abuse is still a nation-wide epidemic but there is a way to effectively handle drug abuse, enroll in a drug and
alcohol treatment center.
