The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is accusing several Mexican drug cartels of infiltrating major U.S. cities after finding a giant mural of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, alias "El Mencho," the leader of Mexico's Jalisco cartel who is also one of the principal traffickers of fentanyl to the U.S.
DEA agents initially found the floor-to-ceiling mural a few weeks ago when they raided a warehouse in Los Angeles. The visuals, which featured El Mencho wearing a bulletproof vest and the insignia of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), stunned the officers, who concluded that it was not a coincidence that they found it in a warehouse they knew they'd see drugs, but rather it was a clear message to them.
