    1. Rather, prosecute not prostitute.
      If not the US than who? Everyone and their mommas have criminal passes in Mexico. Drugs continue to flood American societies with no end in sight from the many corrupt officials on both sides of the fence (countries).
      Despite the scrutiny of financial institutions turning a blind eye for financial purposes. Fines are attributed for their participation.
      Baby, we all know too well that the laundering of money is widespread. A global epidemic of the wealthy hiding fortunes and evading taxes. Its never been a secret. Just well hidden!
