Increase In Enforcement Leads To More Arrests
The U.S. DEA has teamed up with state and Mexican law enforcement to crack down on drugs coming into the U.S. from Mexico or through Mexico from Colombia, Peru, Nicaragua or Guatemala. Those arrested and charged with drug trafficking cases face massive fines and prison time. These are serious crimes, requiring a serious defense strategy.
Law enforcement actions in Dallas, McAllen, Laredo and San Antonio, Texas, have arrested more than 1,000 people in the last 10 years, including members of the Sinaloa Cartel, the Gulf Cartel, La Familia Michoacana cartel and others from Nuevo Laredo to Michoacan to Nayarit, Mexico.
These narcotrafficking busts have led to the confiscation of tons of cocaine, marijuana, meth, black tar heroin and ecstasy, as well as hundreds of weapons and vehicles (including airplanes and ships). In addition to drug trafficking charges, U.S. prosecutors have confiscated hundreds of millions of dollars they associated with money laundering operations.
