Watch Ice Wars

Australian authorities are in a constant fight to top the spread of methamphetamines. Senator Jacqui Lambie makes public her struggle to save her son from addiction. The Middle Eastern Organised Crime Squad raid four drug houses to try to break a crime syndicate. And we hear how the use of ice is rampant in the hospitality and construction industries, as well as the military.

In Blacktown, Police and Emergency Health Services work diligently to manage the local ice problem. We learn that methamphetamine's hold does not discriminate as a world sports champion opens up about his struggles with addiction. An ex-user tells of redemption through rehabilitation, but found hope after hitting rock bottom.

Small towns are vulnerable to the effects of social dislocation caused by desperate ice users. In Nowra, an astonishing percentage of drivers test positive for methamphetamines and in Lismore a dealer is arrested with a trove of crystal meth. Small town community leaders regularly work with authorities to confront as resolve the issue. We visit Wellington, a small NSW town devastated by ice use.

We hear from former ice users tell us their stories of how they became addicted including Aaron, a regular ice user who suffers from schizophrenia. We ride along with NSW Police as they raid a clandestine lab unknowingly located in a homeowner's granny flat. But after a drug lab has been dismantled, who is responsible for cleaning up the toxic residue left behind?
