A new alarming trend on the streets: ketamine, known as a "date rape drug" or "special K," is an anesthetic with hallucinogenic effects. It is being mixed with the opioid, fentanyl, marketed to users as a "special kind of high" by dealers who are attempting to get their drugs delivered in the mail. "The concern is that it's been used as a cocktail with other drugs. If it's mixed with fentanyl, obviously, it becomes deadly," said Sal Ingrassia, CBP port director at J.F.K. International Airport.
