An operative of the Sinaloa Cartel— one of the most powerful and feared criminal network groups in the world— sat down with CNN's Isobel Yeung for an interview and discussed the Trump administration, the cartel's impact on Mexico and the business of drug trafficking: "if there weren't any consumers, we would stop," he summarized.
The man, whose identity or location were not revealed, had a hefty build and was wearing a "Joker" movie baseball cap pulled down over his head, a scarf wrapped tightly around his face, sunglasses to disguise his eyes, and blue latex gloves to cover the tattoos on his hands. He carried an assault rifle and two walkie-talkies, from which cartel look-outs provided a constant stream of feedback on the movements of the Mexican military during the conversation.
