The former drug maven takes viewers back to the scene of the crime in her hometown of Ottumwa, Iowa where for six years, she ran a sprawling multi-state meth empire and played a key role in the start of the Midwest&#8217;s methamphetamine epidemic. A major dealer, user, and even supplier, money poured in and good times rolled for Lori and those close to her, while their lifestyles helped revitalize the economically depressed factory town. At the height of Lori&#8217;s reign, she was producing between 10-20 pounds of meth in her lab and raking in at least $200,000 each week&#8230; until the darker side of addiction and dealing caught up with her.<\/p>\n<p>In <em>Queen of Meth<\/em>, Lori confronts her past by visiting old haunts and rehashing memories with friends and family, including her famous brother, Tom Arnold. Lori and Tom&#8217;s vivid recollections of their formative years reveal hidden family secrets and trauma, poignantly piecing together how Lori&#8217;s disturbing childhood and wild adolescence led her down a drug-riddled path. More than a trip down memory lane, <em>Queen of Meth<\/em> showcases just how this highly successful and unlikely entrepreneur oversaw a multi-million-dollar meth empire, and how even within the ravages of addiction, she was able to flip poverty to prosperity. As she reconnects with friends from her hometown and her estranged son, Josh, she is faced with the repercussions of her actions and the destruction left in her wake, which continues to have devastating consequences in the community and beyond.<\/p><div id=\"morty-3979146420\" class=\"morty-content\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>Now, in an intimate and exclusive moment of reckoning, Lori reflects on how the highs of drugs, money, and power had a grip on her and the hubris she had until the feds closed in on her.
