In the 1980s and 1990s, the United States did not ban drugs, or did not know much about heroin and other drugs. At that time, the United States cared most about marijuana and opium. Therefore, that era was the best era for drug lords, and at that time,
The biggest one is the Colombian drug lord.
Colombian drug lords were not the first to start drug trafficking, but they were the largest and most powerful. It was also this group of Colombians who first started to organize drug trafficking groups. At that time, the largest drug lord group in Colombia was the Medellin Group.
, the second largest city in Colombia.
In this beautiful city, the world's largest drug lord, Pablo Escobar, walked out.
How legendary is this guy? Just look at his profile and you will know.
Pablo Escobar was once selected as one of the seven richest people in the world by Fortune magazine. His private army of 40,000 people is well-equipped; his special plane is called "Skylark". This combat helicopter originally belonged to Colombia.
The Navy, equipped with multiple rocket launchers and Sidewinder missiles, is known as the "air tank". Escobar dispatched three fighter jets to make an emergency landing of the "Skylark" at his airport and became his private plane.
Escobar is the most arrogant drug lord in history. The policeman who arrested him was shot dead within three days; the judge who tried him said that after his wife was gang-raped, related items were sent to the judge's office; Colombia wanted him
The Attorney General, who in turn offered a reward of US$100 million for his capture, was eventually found dead on the street. In 1987, one of his partners, Ochoa, was arrested. The President of the Colombian Supreme Court who was responsible for the trial resigned successively, and the Minister of Justice had to
Cancel the arrest warrant.
He also sent people to assassinate the Minister of Justice who advocated anti-drugs at the time, and sent people to attack the Colombian Ministry of Justice building, kidnapping senior officials of the Ministry of Justice, Supreme Court, Supreme Prosecutor's Office and Anti-Narcotics Police who were in meetings. Finally, the Colombian government dispatched the army.
The riot was eventually suppressed, but that was all. More than half of the judges and prosecutors who were in the building at the time died, and they also burned all criminal evidence about Escobar.
Later, the legendary drug lord planned to assassinate the president, but the president was lucky and did not board the plane with the bomb installed. However, the plane still crashed, causing a large number of casualties. In short, the legendary drug lord really did what he did.
One person's achievement against the entire country. If the Americans hadn't personally committed suicide, he might have turned the entire Colombia upside down.
Then there is the Medellin Cartel to which he belongs. The Medellin Drug Cartel is actually not a specific gang organization. It is composed of four gang organizations. These four major drug trafficking groups are all notorious local drug trafficking organizations.
How powerful are they? Listen to me. There are nearly 300 drug lords of various sizes under the Medellin Drug Lords Group. They are active in various parts of the world and control a huge drug trafficking network of nearly 100,000 people.
, the Medellin drug lord group has a complete drug production and sales system, and is supported by strong armed forces, and has trained a large number of assassin members to assassinate official personnel who want to suppress drugs.
In front of the Medellin Drug Lords Group, the power of the Mafia and the Yamaguchi-gumi cannot be brought to the fore. The annual income of the Medellin Drug Lords Group reaches more than 30 billion U.S. dollars. An American anti-drug official once described the Medellin Drug Lords Group in this way.
Cartel: "In front of the Medellin cartel, the Mafia is like a primary school student,"
However, it prospered but declined. Because it was too arrogant, American Dad became dissatisfied and ended up personally. The result is self-evident.
Naturally, the fate of the Americans was not something that the Medellin Group could satisfy, so the Cali Group, the second largest drug lord group in Colombia at the time, was also affected and destroyed together. After that, Colombian drug lords became insignificant.
The Golden Circle was also an organization conceived when Escobar was alive. At that time, the United States was negotiating an extradition treaty with Colombia, hoping to extradite Colombian drug lords to the United States for trial and imprisonment.
At that time, it may be an exaggeration to say that Colombia was a country ruled by drug lords, but the drug lords did have a great time there. Even if they were caught by the police, it would not matter. Being in jail was like going on vacation. As long as they spent money, they could live comfortably.
.In a few years, means such as commutation of sentence, parole, and medical parole will be available.
So being extradited to the United States was a disaster for them. After all, no one in the United States would do what they did. If they were caught, they would really go in, and they wouldn't be able to get out for hundreds of years. So at that time
Almost all drug lords opposed this move. Escobar even killed a presidential candidate because of it.
At that time, Escobar felt that it would be a bit hesitant for him to fight against the government for the benefit of all drug lords, so he thought about whether he could bring together the Cali Group, the Norte Valley Group, etc. in the country to establish a drug lord organization.
Form a big alliance. This is the Golden Circle, and it's aptly named.
I have to say that Escobar's idea was indeed very good. Considering the power of all drug lords in Colombia at the time, it was indeed not difficult to fight against the government.
It's a pity that the idea is good, but the reality is very skinny.
The competition between these drug lord groups is greater than the unity. For example, the conflict between the Medellin Group and the Cali Group is very serious. The competition between the two sides for the New York market has led to a situation where the two sides are almost fighting to the death. Other drug lord groups are similar.
There were too many, so when it came to Escobar's proposal, everyone saw that he was at his strongest, so they just catered to him and asked him to do whatever he wanted to do next.
At that time, the U.S. government got the news and was really nervous for a while. After all, if these drug lord groups really unite and organize hundreds of thousands of armed personnel, by then, they will no longer be able to suppress drugs, but will have to launch a war!
This was definitely not a good thing for the U.S. government, which was surging with anti-war sentiments at the time.
But later, I discovered that this so-called golden circle was just a fake, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After hearing this, Kai was also very emotional.
Socialism is better, it doesn't have such nonsense at all.
"The situation is complicated now... Our Chicago police have no ability to interfere. I will let the DEA take over. You can take a vacation first. This matter is not over!" Cooper told everyone to leave the case very forcefully, and then left alone.
He left feeling relaxed.
If the Golden Circle is really resurrected, then this matter is out of their hands in Chicago.
In the past, Director Cooper wouldn't have cared about this and would have snatched the case as long as it was a case. After all, a case represents merit, not to mention such a big case, but it's a little different recently. There have been too many troubles in Chicago recently, Director Cooper
Don't want to ask for trouble.
Marcus and Mike opened their mouths to call Director Cooper, but in the end they remained silent. There was no way, the level difference was too big. If Teresa were here, they would definitely mess around to get the case. After all,
Marcus's sister Sydney is also involved.
More importantly, the things involved here... they really can't handle it. Marcus and Mike both consider themselves to be fearless people, but they are still a little timid when facing these 'terminators', damn.
If you don’t even count normal humans, how can you play this?
In short, the only way they can think of now is to get Sydney to withdraw from the case.
…
Kai didn't sleep all night. After all, the things in this case were so shocking. In the end, even the CIA was alerted. When Colombia was anti-drug, the CIA actually participated in part of the operation. Of course, they were not for anti-drugs, but to ensure that Colombia would not be
red.
The 1980s was a critical period for the struggle for hegemony between the United States and the Soviet Union. Countries in South America were also the focus of competition between the United States and the Soviet Union. Especially for the United States, South America was their back garden and an economic colony. Naturally, it was impossible for the United States to let the United States
Step in, Cuba's lesson is enough for them.
Therefore, the main goal of the CIA in the local area was to ensure that Colombia did not fall to the socialist camp. At that time, there were really not many anti-government forces in Colombia, and nine out of ten of them were under the banner of socialism.
The CIA was also involved in the operation against Colombian drug lords at the time, and they also knew about the Golden Circle. But the problem was that what they didn't know was that this organization that never existed at all actually came back to life. This was a big deal.
Again, South America is the back garden of the United States. But now there is an organization in the back garden that they didn't know about before. That is the CIA's dereliction of duty. They must understand it. Of course, there is no reason to grab credit.
It’s unknown.
Anyway, from the beginning of their establishment, the biggest enemies of several large law enforcement agencies in the United States have never been external, but their internal counterparts. After all, Congress only appropriates so much money every year. If you have more, I will have less. So I want more.
The allocation must be more powerful than that of other departments.
At the same time, in addition to the Chicago police, the FBI, CIA, and Department of Homeland Security were all vying for the three "Terminator" wrecks. These three departments all had their own scientific research capabilities, so it was impossible not to rob them.
If the DEA didn't have any decent scientific research capabilities, they would still have to grab it.
This chaos did not subside until the opening of the fair on the third day.
Kai must return as a member of the police special operations team for this expo.
However, Kai did not stay in one place like other colleagues on standby. He was named by the president for retinue. Naturally, the Chicago police were not embarrassed about this and directly agreed.
So during the opening ceremony, Kai was lucky enough to be on the podium, but not in front, but on standby behind the scenes.
So, he met the bitter and resentful Banning again.
Seeing Kai yawning all day, Banning felt very uncomfortable. Banning was a person who valued his responsibilities more important than his life. So he hated people who neglected their duties, such as Kai. In Banning's view, there was nothing wrong with Kai.
If the word "unprofessional" is not written everywhere, if this kind of person is in his team, he will kick him out immediately. This kind of person has no qualifications to protect the president.
However, Kai didn't care much. He didn't want to come in the first place. He was annoyed to death by those bureaucrats these days. They asked the same questions over and over again, making it seem like Kai was behind the three Terminators.
Like everyone else. He hasn't had a good night's sleep in the past few days. Now if he has time, he really wants to run to the command car and take a nap. Who wants to follow the president everywhere like a fool.
The opening ceremony was grand, but that was all. Tony, a playboy, didn't do anything fancy and just followed the procedures honestly.
This pleases many people who are familiar with Tony Stark's nature.
This guy is so out-of-the-box that he may give people a big surprise at any time, but for many politicians, these surprises are completely unnecessary. After all, no one wants to come all the way here to do the background.
Whenever Tony Stark causes trouble, he is the one who steals the show!
This doesn't work!
Did they come here just to see Tony, a playboy, show off? If that were the case, they might as well read the newspaper. The content in the newspaper was much more exciting than this!
But just when everyone thought Tony was not causing trouble this time, the music suddenly started playing!
Tony directly grabbed the microphone from the host and shouted emotionally: "Ladies and gentlemen! Let's do something different!"
After speaking, dry ice suddenly sprayed around the opening ceremony stage.
Before the dignitaries on the stage could figure out what was going on, they saw the backstage suddenly crack, revealing the stairs below. Then, accompanied by dynamic music, a model wearing Victoria lingerie and angel wings took a catwalk down the stairs.
Walked out.
The scene was in an uproar, and then everyone stood up, clapped wildly, and whistled.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Only the politicians and celebrities who were still on the stage felt very embarrassed. They could only show a fake smile and applaud along with the music. They could not do anything else. So
The serious occasion suddenly turned into a lingerie show, and they didn't know how to deal with it. In private, they really didn't mind admiring those beautiful bodies.
But the problem is that now in public, if they reveal their true nature, it will really become a joke. What makes them even more angry is that they don't know how to leave... After the stage split, it just blocked their way to leave the scene.
When Banning saw this scene, he almost drew his gun and rushed out. After all, this situation was completely outside the process they had learned in advance. This kind of unexpected situation is the most annoying situation for security personnel. There are too many uncertainties.
,For example, what if someone among those Morts has evil intentions?
Of course, this is unlikely to happen. Those ladies have very little fabric on their bodies, so it is unlikely that they are hiding any dangerous items.
But what if?
Of course, it's a good thing he didn't rush out, otherwise tomorrow's front page would be very lively.
"Tell me how to get Mr. President out of there!" Banning angrily grabbed the stage manager and demanded that he let the president go.
"It will take a few minutes to follow the process. Now is the time when attention is highest. If Mr. President leaves, it will affect the effect." The person in charge is the planner of the Victoria's Secret show. Of course, they can't let such good publicity go.
If the opportunity had been left in the past, who could have invited the president to the Victoria's Secret show? What's more, he has become a guest performer now.
"Fuck! I don't care what the process is! You listen to me, now, immediately, immediately! Let the president come back here, otherwise, I will arrest you for endangering the president's safety!" Banning doesn't care about this.
Damn it, his job is to protect the president! Everything else stays aside!
The person in charge was grabbed on the head and swallowed, but in the end he still didn't have the guts to refuse. He really wanted to use the president's influence to help Victoria's Secret promote public opinion, but in comparison, his life was more important.
