Sinaloa Cartel Cocaine Brokers Arrested in Medellín, Colombia

By "El Huaso" for Borderland Beat

Two Mexican citizens acting as cocaine brokers for the Sinaloa Cartel were arrested in Medellín, Colombia, during a coordinated operation between Colombian and US authorities on June 19.

The operation was carried out in the Laureles neighborhood by the Colombian Anti-Narcotics Directorate, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the U.S. Marshals Service, and the Colombian Attorney General's Office.

The two men, identified as the “Pacheco” brothers, are wanted by the Southern District Court of Ohio on charges of international drug trafficking. They are set to be extradited to the U.S. 

Authorities say the men are narcotics brokers facilitating contacts and coordinating operations linked to the shipment of cocaine to international markets between the Mexican Sinaloa Cartel and the Clan del Golfo in Colombia.

  1. It's going to be a bad time to be Mexico soon. Most of Central and South America have elected right wing trump loving candidates. Cuba is likely to fall next. You don't want to be the neighbor of a bored Trump who runs around with hammer looking for any nail to fix.
