all closely related. and then my level sheila to combat organized crime ivory de la pena also seeks the help of the military. and he's brought out the big guns. this task force is training in the desert, not far from loose. capital is what all what all this new elite unit was assembled by the secretary general of california. sore to combat organized crime. it comprises more than $400.00 men, all dedicated to tracking down and wrestling drug traffickers. there also trained to enter buildings and pre hostages. the ho,

set up several successful businesses here. who's here i launched a hotel and we're about to go past my restaurant. over here we're setting up dean as well. there's not much left to do. just find the right people to work at. lee, ann has never experienced the insecurity problems that has struck the region and he loved it. timeless charm. american tourist seemed to share this sentiment. they've been returning to last cobbles in droves. thanks to the new security measures. the sandria has blown in from los angeles. he planned to spend 4 days partying here with her girlfriends.

weren't here last. maybe in the agree. we're going to relax and have a good. so you guys are going to how you want to know that from the moment they arrive, hotel employees, pamper and reassure the guess it's been really been on the club. the bars got everything. really good. edwards and mean safety of 100 percent of the the for 2000 euros each. the friends are going to spend an all inclusive long weekend at one of the many secure resorts built on the coast. since the end of the 2017 conflict, this hotel is fully books for 10 months of the year. the giant complex has more

than 800 rooms and everything the guests could wish for the, you know, but i know i know the different restaurants. i know they have all types of premium alcohol. if those went up and we love it, let me go check out the pool. this was exactly woods. andrea was looking for a safe and secure location. she won't have to leave for the rest of her trips. oh yeah, i will say, i don't, i mean i definitely think that that, that know they probably put a special emphasis on safety for the resort. so i assume, and maybe this is my even me, that they will protect these type of fabulous meant because that reputation gets out that you can't protect your guess was going to come in and i mean, so money is business. business is money. so i definitely think that they take their safety very serious. am i going off? the reason why i know, ah,

joy and pool parties are a popular tradition at mexican seaside resorts. but in college and look us, they are a little different. this hotel plays up the narcotic scene. the guests are especially excited about the champagne guns. the. the hotel employee explains how to use it. the the foreign tourist? no, they have nothing to fear from behind the walls of their hotels. here they can play with their plastic guns the in bar

california. sure. the locals are the victims of the drug gangs. and the cars held are a long way from loosening their grip. kaba, in a small hotel on the outskirts of town, we met with a former dealer for the scene, a loa cartel, back then she worked for a chapel. we'll call her patricia for security reasons. she wants to remain anonymous 3 years ago in a settling of scores with a rival cartel. patricia was shot 7 times those the spirals met right here. there were 2 bullets in my lungs, 3 over here in my arm and my shoulder. i was also shot in the throat and the bullet went in here behind my ear. it was off. who will kick saddler? i took another to the head and came out. here we are. sally's patricia spent

a week in a coma, but miraculously escaped death. the cloud. okay. i knew that something like this was going to happen to me sooner or later in the business with either death or prison despite all she has been true, patricia doesn't regret having joined el chapel cartel. she made lots of money in the drug trade medical sheet on her way, offered me a job. i had to be available 247. i mainly sold crystal meth as well as our purest products, which was cocaine during the 2 years. and 3 months that i worked, i received commission on everything. i sold me back to me soon. so i was able to make up to 500 euros a day, got back in to meet with you. that's around $600.00 euros for a single day's work. in mexico for many, a month's salary. and contrary to official statements,

this ex dealer said the senior lower cartels grip on toggle is as strong as ever. you'll see him pretty. the leaders will always be in and around cabo, because the gringos spend lots of money. there is a lot of money and loss capital to the needle. in reality, drugs will never disappear and it's a system. so even if lots of people are killed in the process, the system will remain and drugs will continue to circulate. the system is still intact, gunshots may no longer be heard echoing through the streets, but the drug trade is still booming. cabo san lucas is home to dozens of nightclubs at night, some tours to leave their secure resorts to party. it's a lucrative market for the drug cartels. why would i use the dealers conduct their business undisturbed, outside the clubs or on the sidewalks?

despite the visible police presence, the police patrols seemed to be in place more to reassure vacationers than to target drug dealers. in the background, a dealer give some cocaine to a clever in public. if you look like a tourist dealers aren't afraid to approach and offer you drugs. we speak to a dealer working outside a well known night club. what was on the protocol to please hear me. i think you guys believe the dealer boasts about how he bribes the cops?

yeah. well, we don't have a problem. right. you want to find you likely there is no proof that the dealer is bribed the police. what is for certain is that the cartels have changed their strategies to continue working in p. we had to a working class district in san jose to cobble the cartels recruit dealers from areas like this one. there are many collateral victims of drug trafficking here every day. so choral praise for her brother alberto in front of the altar. she's built for him in her living room.

we're able to hear only, mary. i pray for my brother. please protect him. help him find the right way. he may be a father of 3, a bear till owned a workshop. he's also suspected of laundering the cartels money before his disappearance in april 2018. but it's horrible. not knowing where that was in. maybe he got on the wrong. com but we never found out what happened to him when both to our family. he was nothing more than a good son. a good brother. that's good husband and especially a good looking. probably we don't need to find the culprit. and we don't want to know what happened by so we just want to say that making people who disappear for good is the latest strategy used by the cartels to tie up any loose ends without leading

a trace. i miss so much. even if her brother works for the cartel, socorro believe he deserves a proper burial, but the government won't help. what actually i'm angry because the government is doing nothing inside the lifting a finger. you know that these stories are released in the media because they don't want to jeopardize the tourist. see, there are lots of disappearances that the government doesn't want anyone to know about. these disappearances are also convenient for the because they don't inflate the regents crime statistics every sunday, the quarter goes out to meet a group of local whose loved ones have also vanished without

a trace. we had to the hills around las cowboys. the this is where the cartels dumped their victim's body. disposed up like trash. one body was found over here and another one just across the road every day. at the foot of the hill, the quarter joined a group of 12 volunteers who are all close to the victims ross, the groups leader is president of the association for disappeared. persons in los angeles, she lost her best friend almost 2 years ago. ever since she's been in charge of the searches on today,

we are focusing else on this when we search this area previously, we found a few. so we want to see if there's a mass grave around look, there are still some shovels. will start over there. you follow me to unearth what lies buried in these hills. the volunteers have just a few simple tools at their disposal. shovels, take axes and long metal rods. their best resource for finding decomposing bodies. we poke around in the looking for anything hidden, the better than we check of it smells of death or rod, the smells normal. so there's nothing here. after several minutes of searching, ross and her team make their 1st grim discovery

the they gave us it doesn't say if that's but i've got these pieces of appeal, but i guess there's no legitimate reason to find tools like this here. so we figured they've been used to dismember what is possibly told to come up with a torture camp in the middle of nowhere in these hills. that's nothing unusual. each time the volunteers have a hunch about something they dig tirelessly, though due to the vast amount of ground to cover their chances of finding anything are quite slim. yet a little further on, they discover another clue. yes, it's a bone the bone will be sent to a lab for analysis. in the hope it might contain the d n a of one of the missing people. final thoughts on being able to tell one of the

families that we've found someone is very gratifying. someone else is at least a family knows with a loved one in ski. why they don't know for me how mission to find their loved ones, no matter the condition area. let me see. let me know. thanks to the volunteers hard work. the authorities have already identified 500 bodies and given many families the chance to mourn in california soon, the cartels violence continues undeterred. the just a few kilometers away, the participants at the bid the tournament are completely oblivious to such tragedies. the wealthy here have just one thing on their mind. catching the biggest

fish of the day, they hope it's going to make them even richer at the marina, a crowd eagerly await the return of the 1st boat. it's time for the big way in the team members show off the catch and head for this gale. when biz be the tournaments host provides the commentary? well, i have to ask how much money they've taken from us in the past, but it's been a few times for me, but i think we're good to do this. marlon is out of the running, falling short by

a mere 20 kilos. now american, businessman allen stewart, has returned to land. just hang up here, you got to bring it up there feeling really great. everything's working out good so far. we'll see what it weighs, where we feel very good. the the the allen stewart is the final competitor of the day. when busy raises the stake. all right, it is 31.36000000000 change
