Tonight on Secure Freedom Radio: Supervisory Special Agent Jeffrey Scott of the Drug Enforcement Administration brings Frank up to date on the recent DEA missions to stop the drug cartels that run rampant south of the border with Mexico. In July, the DEA announced the result of their Project Delirium, in which they conducted a series of investigations into the La Familia Michoacana (LFM) drug cartel. During these investigations, US and Mexican law enforcement found $62 million in US currency, 2,800 pounds of meth and cocaine, 1,000 pounds of heroin, and made over 2,000 arrests of drug traffickers. Agent Scott discusses how Project Delirium is an umbrella operation under which several smaller operations are running. The purpose of umbrella operations such as Project Delirium are used to decrease duplication of investigations, as well as used to target and disrupt the largest cartels in one stroke. Project Delirium, says Agent Scott, showed the commitment at the political and law enforcement level of the Mexican leadership and police force, as well as successfully showed increased cooperation between US and Mexican law enforcement agencies. These investigations proved to weaken both the leadership and drug trafficking structure of LFM.
