Notes:
Dal 1935 al 1975 negli Stati Uniti molte persone furono arrestate per droga ed inviate agli Stati Uniti Narcotic Farm fuori Lexington, Kentucky. Al tempo stesso prigione federale, centro di trattamento e laboratorio di ricerca, questa istituzione controversa è stata progettata non solo per riabilitare i tossicodipendenti, ma alla scoperta di una cura per questa. From 1935 to 1975, just about everyone busted for drugs in the U.S. was sent to the United States Narcotic Farm outside Lexington, Ky. Equal parts federal prison, treatment center, research laboratory and farm, this controversial institution was designed not only to rehabilitate addicts, but to discover a cure for drug addiction.
