The Cartel Menace (ft. Victor Avila)

In Today's episode of "Moment of Truth," Saurabh sits down with Victor Avila, Supervisory Special Agent (Ret.) at Immigration & Customs Enforcement, to discuss the real nature of Mexico's violent drug cartels, how the cartels expanded operations beyond narcotics into all illicit activities such as human trafficking, extortion, assassinations, and more, their physical control of nearly 40% of the nation of Mexico, plus their attempt on Victor's life for speaking out and fighting for peace and justice.
