“While La Tigressa was snarling at the president, other Mexican officials also were talking. Wild, unbelievable stories began to circulate through Latin American intelligence and diplomatic circles. Local journalists, whose ties to high Mexican police officials were in some cases stronger than those of American drug agents, reported that under torture Falcon had admitted working for the CIA to set up a network exchanging Mexican heroin and marijuana for weapons. The weapons, according to these reports, were passed to Central American guerrilla groups fighting to 'destabilize' their governments. Governments harassed by the guerrillas, it was hoped, would align themselves with the United States in exchange for military aid. The plan would cost the CIA nothing since it was financed by unwitting American drug dealers, pot smokers, and junkies.”
James Mills, The Underground Empire: Where Crime and Governments Embrace

“Life had become a huge, monstrous machine. Grinding to nowhere.”
James Edward Mills, The Underground Empire: Where Crime and Governments Embrace

“Tuan claimed that the Thair Border Patrol Police were 'totally corrupt and responsible for transportation of narcotics.' This was of some interest, since the BPP, a CIA creation, was known to be controlled by SRF, the Bangkok CIA station.”
James Edward Mills, The Underground Empire: Where Crime and Governments Embrace
