JUST THE COST OF DOING BUSINESS

Those who would have us believe that the seizure of 750 pounds of meth worth over $34 million is “a crushing blow to the cartels that market the meth,” are either delusional or trying to fool us into believing that the drug trade has been deeply impacted. The truth is that this is just a temporary setback – it’s just the cost of doing business.

The three idiots looking after the meth stash might not have been caught had they not been stealing iPads on the side. Look for them to be terminally rehabilitated on orders of their cartel bosses.

MASSIVE (750 POUNDS) SAN JOSE METH BUST TIED TO MEXICAN CARTEL

SAN JOSE – Three San Jose residents charged in connection with one of the largest methamphetamine seizures in U.S. history have ties to a Mexican drug trafficking organization, according to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration.

Last week, the DEA confiscated more than 750 pounds of meth in a San Jose raid with a street value of over $34 million.

“It’s a crushing blow to the cartels that market the meth,” said George W. Grayson, author of, Mexico: Narco-Violence and a Failed State?

He said the cartels are increasingly enlarging their meth exports as they diversify their array of products.

Suspects Alberto Rodriguez, Carlos Aguilar, and Liliana Lopez were each being held on $2 million bail.

Their apartment off of Snell Ave. was actually found by Palo Alto Police detectives who had gone there as part of an investigation into stolen iPads.
