Скачать или смотреть A DEA Veteran, a Cartel, and a $12 Million Money Trail

You clicked to understand how a veteran law-enforcement insider could allegedly end up helping a cartel move millions — you’re in the right place.

In this video, we break down the case against Paul Campo, a 25-year DEA veteran accused of offering insider money-laundering strategies to what he believed was a representative of CJNG. Prosecutors allege the conversations outlined how cartel proceeds could be structured, layered, and converted — including the use of crypto — to reduce detection and keep revenue flowing.

This isn’t street-level crime. It’s financial warfare.

We walk through how investigators say the alleged scheme worked, why insider knowledge changes the risk calculus, and how recorded meetings, traced funds, and controlled transactions form the backbone of a modern laundering sting.

In this documentary-style breakdown, we cover:

How cartel money is structured to avoid detection

Why insider knowledge of compliance systems matters

How $12 million in alleged proceeds were discussed and routed

Why moving part of the flow into crypto changes enforcement dynamics

How stings track money through banks, wallets, and off-ramps

Where courts draw the line between talk and conspiracy

The defense disputes the government’s interpretation, and that distinction matters. In financial crime cases, intent, agreement, and overt acts determine whether words cross into criminal conduct.

This case sits at the intersection of law enforcement, organized crime, and modern finance — and shows how valuable insider tradecraft can be when it’s allegedly offered to the highest bidder.
