    This was dramatized in "Narcos: Mexico".

    The Mexican drug lord, whose role in ordering the kidnapping and murder of a US drugs enforcement agent in 1985 was featured in Netflix drama Narcos: Mexico, has been captured.

    Rafael Caro Quintero, a notorious co-founder of the brutal Guadalajara Cartel, was behind the torture and murder of 37-year-old DEA agent.

    Something I've seen several times, and a good reason why we really need to drop the War on Drugs. Although ...

    "The inquiry inserts the Justice Department into a chapter of the 1980s drug war that the government had long dismissed as a myth – claims that the U.S. government entangled itself with drug traffickers as officials in the Reagan administration illegally armed rebels fighting the socialist government in Nicaragua."

    Wait, when was that considered a myth? I thought Colonel North alluded to that several times.
