During the last week of January 2012, in Tucson, AZ, local and federal investigators arrested 14 suspected members of a drug-trafficking organization. They believe this organization has been in operation for more than 10 years and is suspected of also being involved with money laundering and weapons.

It is reported in the Arizona Central that the group has been smuggling large quantities of marijuana and cocaine from Mexico through the border city of Nogales and hiding the drugs in dump trucks as they made their way into the U.S. The drugs were then stored in homes in Nogales, Rio Rico, Tucson and Phoenix

Maybe one of the 14 arrested will have info about Fast and Furious.

Just in this last week in our little rural county, we busted one guy for possession of $520,000 worth of heroin and meth and another for $1 million worth of meth. Both were hispanics and we have a very low population of hispanics generally.
