Ecuadorian politicians, business executives, and narcotraffickers arrested for narcotics importation and weapons offenses: “The charges announced today represent a coordinated effort to dismantle political corruption and narcotics trafficking that had wreaked havoc in Ecuador and plagued the country with increasing violence in recent years,” said U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald. “As alleged in the Indictment, the defendants played a critical role in transforming the country into a major transit hub for 70 percent of the cocaine reaching the United States and Europe. These prosecutions hold accountable powerful politicians and narcotraffickers alike who profited from and facilitated the international narcotics trade and who degraded Ecuador’s internal security.” @DEAHQView quoted post on X
