Government Report Finds DEA Agents Had "Sex Parties" With Prostitutes Hired By Drug Cartels
Submitted by Mike Krieger via Liberty Blitzkrieg blog,
Although some of the DEA agents participating in these parties denied it, the information in the case file suggested they should have known the prostitutes in attendance were paid with cartel funds. A foreign officer also alleged providing protection for the DEA agents’ weapons and property during the parties, the report said. The foreign officers further alleged that in addition to soliciting prostitutes, three DEA SSAs [special agents] in particular were provided money, expensive gifts, and weapons from drug cartel members.
* A deputy U.S. Marshal “entered into a romantic relationship” with a fugitive’s spouse and would not break off the relationship for more than a year, even after being told by supervisors to end it.
* An ATF “Director of Industry Operations” had “solicited consensual sex with anonymous partners and modified a hotel room door to facilitate sexual play.” The ATF employee even disabled a hotel’s fire detection system, and when caught by the hotel, said he had done it before.
– From the Politico article: DEA Agents Had ‘Sex Parties’ with Prostitutes, Watchdog Says
There’s no agency in government more vehemently opposed to ending the immoral and counterproductive “war on drugs” than the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Now we know why.
From Politico:
Agents of the Drug Enforcement Administration reportedly had “sex parties” with prostitutes hired by drug cartels in Colombia, according to a new inspector general report released by the Justice Department on Thursday.
In addition, Colombian police officers allegedly provided “protection for the DEA agents’ weapons and property during the parties,” the report states. Ten DEA agents later admitted attending the parties, and some of the agents received suspensions of two to 10 days.
Suspensions of two to ten days. That’ll teach ‘em.
The Oversight panel is also investigating allegations into the Secret Service that agents there hired prostitutes in Colombia while advancing a trip for President Barack Obama.
Moreover,the report states that DEA, ATF and the Marshals Service repeatedly failed to report all risky or improper sexual behavior to security personnel at those agencies.
“The foreign officer allegedly arranged ‘sex parties’ with prostitutes funded by the local drug cartels for these DEA agents at their government-leased quarters, over a period of several years,” the IG report says.
“Although some of the DEA agents participating in these parties denied it, the information in the case file suggested they should have known the prostitutes in attendance were paid with cartel funds. A foreign officer also alleged providing protection for the DEA agents’ weapons and property during the parties,” the report said. “The foreign officers further alleged that in addition to soliciting prostitutes, three DEA SSAs [special agents] in particular were provided money, expensive gifts, and weapons from drug cartel members.”
The IG’s office asserts that DEA officials did not fully comply with their requests for information during the probe.
* A deputy U.S. Marshal “entered into a romantic relationship” with a fugitive’s spouse and would not break off the relationship for more than a year, even after being told by supervisors to end it;
* An ATF “Director of Industry Operations” had “solicited consensual sex with anonymous partners and modified a hotel room door to facilitate sexual play.” The ATF employee even disabled a hotel’s fire detection system, and when caught by the hotel, said he had done it before;
While these agents will almost undoubtedly receive no real punishment, perhaps some good will come from this: End the idiotic war on drugs.

ACE - The are not cool dudes - they are scumbags - the cool dudes are the drug dealers who have balls for their business and recognizing the DEA clowns can be co-opted
get a life!
Well put; that is exactly the point.
Mr. Delicious - I upvoted you but it gave you a negative at the same time ZH has a strange voting algorithm I have asked them to axe a few times now. They weight certain commentators.
In any event, since you mentioned 'fags' in your comment below, I was curious how many dudes were behind that hole on the plywood and if the agents weren't so high they didn't notice the difference. Kind of like the "Me Chinese me play joke" ditty.
as long as you don't get caught :P
laws are for the slaves, not the royal elite ruling class
Nor for the New Praetorian Guard they employ.
Noooooooo.... you're fucking kidding? Hypocrisy coming from .gov? No fucking way. Seriously though, why the fuck is this country so hung up on grown people having consensual sex? Who gives a rats ass?
"Hypocrisy coming from .gov?"
Obviously the solution to that problem is more government.
I'm here from the Federal Anti-Hypocrisy Agency and I'm here to help.
I'm only pissed because what I paid in taxes last year could have provided me with a fuckton (technical term) of hookers and blow. Basically these cocksuckers fucked pussy that legitmately belonged to me...and drugs that legitametly belonged to me. Theiving pricks.
Would you accept sloppy seconds as appropriate compensation?
Doc, I know you know this but they cant tax it, if its not regulated. There is no way to regulate it. Hence you can't do what they get to do! Which is pay for it with tax dollars.
Every idiot here who is whooping it up and saying that this is all good and we should not be prudish, etc. has his head up his ass and does not know squat about the reality on the ground. All this talk about "consensual sex" hides the ugly reality of Colombia and the US presence there. It is much worse than presented in this article.
I bet precious few persons here have ever set foot -on "official business"- in Colombia. If you have, you certainly know about it and I wish someone other than I would also speak to this and add to the "learning" here.
The US has many bases in Colombia. There are seven large ones, and quite a few smaller garrisons scattered about the country. There are US soldiers, sailors, marines, and contractors rotating in and out all the time. By the SOFA, all US personnel have legal immunity from prosecution, so no criminal cases are ever documented, prosecuted, or even brought up for any reason against US military/.gov civilian personnel, including contractors. This is almost an incentive for sexual assault, rape, and other crimes.
Sweet deal right? You get to rape (subhuman?) women and children, among other things, then leave the country whenever.
Here is a case that I think illustrates the ugliness and impunity.
The 12 year old daughter of Olga Castillo Campos was drugged in a public place, abducted and taken to the military barracks, where she was repeatedly raped by a US soldier and a US contractor. She was dumped in a park the next day. When the mother sought justice from the legal system for this triple crime, she was rebuffed by the authorities, citing the immunity of US soldiers and personnel. She personally confronted these two pieces of human excrement about it, and their hostile reply was "Yeah we raped her, so what? We are in Colombia and the law does not apply to us".
There is an air base called Tolemaida Air Base. It is located next to the town of Melgar, which is slightly west of the center of Colombia. In one 2004 case in Melgar, 53 underage girls were sexually abused by nearby stationed military contractors who moreover filmed the rapes and sold the films as pornographic material for 10,000 pesos (approximately 2,600 US Dollars) each. To add to the injuries, the victims of the sexual abuse practices were forced to flee their own land (!) after their families received death threats.
-----------------------------
These are just two of hundreds of sordid cases. Now I do not wish anyone ill, but I will ask this hypothetical question:
How cool are you with your underage daughters or granddaughters being "reeled into the good times" and given a free ride to a park the next day?
How about your mothers, wives, and sisters being bent over and forced to "partake in the party" all night, and with everyone there?
http://fair.org/blog/2015/03/26/colombian-report-on-us-militarys-child-r...
The original RT report says:
"The claims are part of an 800-page report by an independent commission established by the Colombian government and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) rebel group. The commission’s goal is to determine the causes and document the consequences of the civil war that has ravaged the country for 50 years and claimed over seven million lives"
Seven million lives have been lost over fifty years because American military personnel and contractors allegedly raped 54 Columbian women a decade ago?
Bull crap.
*sigh*
Separate the two concepts and maybe you will understand it better.
Concept #1- The "claims" of rape are part of the report.
Concept #2- The purpose of the report is to determine the causes and document the consequences of the civil war.
They are not saying that the rapes are the cause of the Civil War.
They are just one of many consequences.
No causes are reported by the Columbians via RT, and no "consequences," in a conflcit that has cost 7 MILLION LIVES except for ten-year-old allegations of 54 rapes?
It's a fraud on its face, even if the allegations are true. "Strain at a gnat and swallow a camel."
Oh well, I made an honest effort.
Believe what you will.
Good luck to you.
SEX, DRUGS... & ROCK-N-ROLL
wonder which made more money
the sale of drugs
or
the war against those same drugs
"Progressive" governments are all about "employment"! :-) I gave up on them when I kept heard Republiturd candidates saying stuff like "My first priority is JOBS!" Sheesh - Progressives in Republiturd clothing.. anyway, they all the same and have been for a long time, I was just a slow study.
create a problem
then pay yourself
to 'solve' said problem
Shocking. Truly shocking. What happened to the "Burns family circle of trust"?
The SEC is pissed -- they had to be content with porn . . . or did they?
Certainly appears that pretty much anything goes when you have a mulatto muslim squatting in the White House.
i suppose that referring to a duly elected President warrants that respect.
Utilizing the fairness doctrine, would you prefer a frat boy from Texas?
A President (just another citizen) that does not respect the country and the will of the people does not deserve our respect.....
DEA ? Does that stand for Drug Enforcement Agency ? Americans are strange, most people in my country dont need to be FORCED to take drugs , we do it voluntarily.
Isn't it to ensure that only certain cartels are the only ones who can import the drugs in...
Whut, no beavuh?
Is this bad or good? I'm confused. Sounds like fun to me
Every American institution seems to be corrupted. LOL
FBI agents had to settle with sex with barnyard animals.
Property seizures, Bitchez. Blonde sows have all the fun.

BTW, this story turned out to be a hoax
Well that is more punishment than a bankster gets.
This is normal operating procedure down here in Colombia.....its all party time down here....you might have a wife..but you have 5 girlfriends too....its all good....
War on drugs
More failed policy
GOV did seize alot of cash and property that they sell off at less than market under the guise of this boondoggle. Mandetory sentencing makes huge $$ for the private prison industry. All good for the insiders who get the best drugs and women.
A) The "prostitutes" were probably the most gorgeous Columbian women you have ever seen.
B) The cocaine would have been pure or close too. Brain numbing ecstacy.
C) Good to see tax dollars going to good use assholes.
D) You only live once. Getting fired from the DEA it would still be totally worth it.
Technically they're not "your" Dollars.
They're the Fed's dollars. The only "your" part (since 1913) is the Debt Servicing you do and will continue to do. IOW... "Perpetual Debt for perpetual free dumbs."
Am surprised that so many ZHers still lack this clarity.
p.s. I did not junk you.
" we had years working on the case and the media just blew it" from the lips of some dea agent
What, no ROCK & ROLL?
O MAN I want to be a DEA agent
You on steroids yet?
You are all just jealous you didn't pass the test.
piss test
Let's shut this shitehole down and start again. Everyone fired; no more elections until after figuring out what would work better.
"no more elections"
I do believe that is the plan.
Did you mean no more 'erections'?
This was probably pretty common in Rome too.
Before the empire fell.
Nothing to see here, etc etc
I tend to think their architecture was more endearing, and likely to prove more enduring. Surely the modern Builders are hanging their heads in shame. Those guys may need to take a time out. Then again, it may all prove to have been disposable anyway. Steel and synthetic materials don't hold a candle to the mason's craftsmanship of old. IMO - queue Gimli
Hmmmm ....sounds alittle too Patriotic to me!
Hookers and coke FTW.
The impetus for this type of behavior is civilian asset forfeiture-a gift from the great amerikan god ronald reagan [orrin hatch.strom thurmond]
amerikans are stripped of their property without warrant or trial,to pay for the drunken cop orgies.
* An ATF “Director of Industry Operations” had “solicited consensual sex with anonymous partners and modified a hotel room door to facilitate sexual play.
Is this the same thing as a glory hole? Really? Porn on the internet not good enough? LOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Depends on weather they expensed the cost of the hole saw on the DEA or not?
Wrs1 - Damn right it was consensual, the drug lord gave his consent!
Let me see, which one would I like?
haha, right on, bullybear.
want to break the power of the cartels?
legalize pot and coke, regulate them and tax them
as for heroin - just stop guarding the poppy fields and the taliban will destroy them in 2 years.
of course - the war on drugs allows for all sorts of black ops and black budget fuckery.
do you parrot everything fed to you from globalresearch? Bwaaaaaaa
Well a 40 year undercover operation blown to shit.
yeh, sure, tax them. give the all powerful central state even more power.as if they arent enough of a threat to all humanity already.
Sounds like they need to go on administrative leave/paid vacation. They can be reinstated after a couple dozen new government abuse stories hit the news cycle and rapidly fade from the goldfish minds of the American public.
This is NO story. Congressmen routinely have sex parties (often with little boys and girls) which are paid for by the drug catels' bosses -the banksters.
Sounds more like a recruitment drive by DEA to get more agents.
Actually, both are stories.
I must be in the minority here.
I would prefer that the DEA does anything, absolutely anything, other than their stated jobs.
If keeping them up to the chins in coke and whores is what's in the public's best interest, hey, price we all gotta pay.
+100
all my posts are dups ;(
So what's the next revelation going to be? J Edgar Hoover and Clyde Tolson frolicking with Al Capone and John Dillinger in Chicago bathhouses?
For many years now I have been attempting to get the Government of CANADA to classify Cocaine as a Neurotoxin. A number of years back I actually called the DEA in Washington and spoke with a DEA agent who was quite helpful with regard to how I might enlist the Canadian Government to amend our legislation. I chatted with the DEA agent enough to know that he was a professional in terms of his approach. In brief, agents in the field on assignment probably don't act ethically all of the time, but I, for one, believe that some of them do indeed act ethically 24/7. In every organization there are bad apples IMHO, and the DEA is no different.
Human beings have a right to do whatever they wish to their own body. To claim otherwise is to be a human predator and an advocate of totalitarian dictatorship. You should be DEEPLY ASHAMED of yourself.
You should also note that wherever drugs are legal, less people take harmful drugs. So if you care about human beings, you should advocate repeal of all drug laws, including prescription drug laws. And if you really care a lot, you should volunteer to help people to kick their bad habits, including drugs.
Note that I don't take drugs, and I've never even drunk alcohol or smoked anything. Hell, for health purposes I take natural herbs rather than artificial drugs. So my opinion has nothing whatsoever to do with some desire to make drugs easier for me to get. I don't want them, and I won't take them.
Another GREAT post!
I studied the genesis of Psychoanalytic Theory/historiography of Sigmund Freud, and discovered that Freud wrote Uber Coca. I studied that history, and then studied Neuroscience/Behavioural Medicine to discover that Cocaine is neurotoxic to the Central Nervous System in any amount. After consulting with the Chair in Neuroscience at the local university I discovered that "there is no safe level of use" for the BRAIN [Central Nervous System] and that Cocaine has a certain 100% positive effect for neurotoxicity to all brain tissues/brain regions. ERGO, if we change the federal drug classification from the present _Stimulant_ status to include the fact that it is 100% neurotoxic to the Central Nervous System, we will then be able to legislate a WARNING system to cohorts of individuals that are 'at risk' to being subjected to neurotoxicity in their central nervous systems. In this respect, I hope to introduce an early WARNING system to the secondary educators that educate new cohorts of drug addicts out of the secondary school system.
NOTE: The only way to teach people to avoid damaging their brain is to teach people what damages their brain. If we teach children to know what a neurotoxin is and how to avoid them we will automatically reduce Cocaine usage in society and then we would see more Mexican people keep their heads instead of losing them to Mexican drug cartels.
You can't teach anyone anything, because they know most of what they hear from you, their parents, their teachers and everyone else are lies. So if you want to tell them the truth for a change, they won't believe you. Why should they?
This is the old "boy who cried wolf" issue. Once you (and parents and teachers and adults in general) lie to kids a few hundred times, they don't believe anything you say, and they probably won't even listen. And I don't blame them. If you want them to take you seriously, you must stop lying about everything. And you must do so for the rest of your life. And you also have the impossible task of getting all other adults to stop lying to them. You can't do that, so your job is hopeless.
Blantant lies have become so utterly "socially acceptable" (and absolutely mandated by predators-DBA-government), that about 99.999% humans have crossed the sanity "event horizon", and have no way to recover their sanity. This could have been stopped, but humans have gone so far beyond the event horizon at this point, no return is possible.
Eliminate the welfare state, socialized medicine, socialized education and civil services and I can possibly buy in....but while I am forced to pay the tab for peoples retarded habits, nope!!!
This topic is where Libertarianism becomes a mental disorder.....possibly self induced.
Exactly.
You should try beer. It helps me relax and escape from reality. I think there are herbs in beer-at least the more quality brands. If you want, we can hook up and I'll buy you a beer (or a few) Bring your herbs along. I've been meaning to try some.
Hahaha... thanks for the thought. But the only time I get non-relaxed is when I read and respond in ZH. The rest of the time I'm alone here in the boonies, 125km from the nearest human being.
No TV, no radio, no newspapers, no humans... nothing BUT reality. The land around me and the sky above me are relaxing. So all I need to relax is... avoid looking at ZH, my one annoying addiction (my others addictions being healthy, pleasant, relaxing addictions).
The universe, the natural earth (especially where I live), everything real except human beings is relaxing. I love reality... except those 99.999% of humans who are hopelessly insane. Thus I have no interest in escaping reality, only escaping human beings. Which I've mostly done, except for that tiny keyhole on humanity that is ZH.
"...I, for one, believe that some of them do indeed act ethically 24/7?
No, No, No. You are mistaking by putting a value on an Implementation Methodology. Whether they execute it correctly.
That's not the point. The question is the DEA's WHOLE mission scope. Which., by and large, is a natural outgrowth of the War On Drugs.
The question is: Should we look at who really profits from the War On Drugs, and whether our government should be putting so much effort into it.
Sigmund Freud is historically accused of unleashing the Third Scourge on humanity. The First Scourge is Alcohol, and the Second Scourge is tobacco while the Third Scourge is Cocaine. Freud made a huge mistake in terms of advocacy for the therapeutic administration of Cocaine back when he advocated using it when he wrote Uber Coca. As one that has studied Freud extensively I know he did not fully understand the mechanisms of addictions and would be astonished to see how many people are addicted to cocaine today. As a student of Freud it is my responsibility to circumvent the fallout from Freud's introduction of Cocaine to the World. If I am successful in terms of getting cocaine classified as a neurotoxin on the federal drug classification system, I will be able to undo the damage that Freud has unwittingly wrought on contemporary society. This, in turn, would be a significant feather in my cap in Experimental Psychology and I would get historical recognition for my ideas in Experimental Psychology. ERGO, that would enable me to get a real job with real funding!!!!
Hey, if you drink clorox bleach or windex (ammonia) or any number of other day-to-day chemicals, will that harm your neurons (be a "neurotoxin")? Of course!
I'm sure many other chemicals that have other purposes would also be harmful to drink. So what? You want to outlaw every last chemical that has harmful consequences? How about sugar? How about high fructose corn syrup (55% of which contains brain-damaging heavy metals including mercury)?
The list never ends.
You are clearly an advocate of totalitarian authoritarianism. Everything you advocate is known to cause MORE consumption of dangerous materials, and all the punishment for consuming chemicals you want banned causes horrific harm to people who need help, not further harm.
You are apparently perfectly happy to see the entire lives ruined of everyone who makes the mistake of being peer-pressured to take potentially harmful substances. Almost none of them will be able to become productive human beings in the future precisely because your approach paints a permanent, indelible "criminal" label on their record.
Even if you can't stop yourself from being an unapologetic supporter of totalitarian dictatorship, you should at least demand that only the SELLER is guilty of a crime, on the basis they sold a poison for consumption. But even that is dictatorship, so no honest, ethical individual would support that, no matter how much that might seem right to you.
You want to earn a comfortable living by destroying millions of lives. Very despicable.
You are projecting 'predatory behaviour' and 'despicable behaviour' on my part, but you fail to see that you are the one that is predatory towards myself, and my character, as well as my idea to prevent neuorological damage to developmentally formative brains of children. Furthermore, I fail to understand how giving informed consent to children is 'destroying' their lives? Frankly, I think you are what you are projecting onto myself, Honestann. Your histrionics are not impressive IMHO.
Sorry, but anyone who says "I intend to have you locked up for not obeying commands I issue" is a predator. When you want to personally implement actions like these, and fund others who take actions like these, then you are even more predatory.
Just because authoritarianism has been jammed into human beings from the day they begin to learn language, and overt brainwashing for decades has resulted in most humans accepting authoritarianism, does NOT forgive you for advocating and implementing such.
It is YOU who want to control my life, and the lives of billions of others (everyone on earth if you get the chance). I do NOT want to control you life.
THAT IS THE POINT.
This necessarily means that you ARE a predator. Not primarily as a pejorative, but as the most precise fundamental description. If you ARE an authoritarian, then ADMIT IT. Then attempt to justify your ideas.
You don't. Why not? Address the issues.
Are you perfectly okay if everyone else on earth attempts to force you in whatever ways they wish? To be consistent, YOU MUST. You are no god (and there are none). You are no "authority" (and there are none). So if you advocate harming others, locking them in cages for years, destroying their future opportunities... you damn well better advocate everyone else on planet earth does their best to treat you the same way.
In the end, there are two ways for sentient creatures to function on a planet.
#1: Everyone is free to make all their own decisions, take any actions they wish, and generally run their own life, as long as they harm nobody else.
#2: Everyone attempts to force everyone else to accept their decisions, take no action they prohibit, always take actions they mandate, and generally be enslaved by everyone else.
No third options exist, the above two exhaust all possibilities. You might say, "well, I don't want to make EVERY decision for everyone", but that is an utterly bogus objection for many reasons. First, the age of the universe is insufficient to formulate demands for every possible decision or action a human might take. Second, you have not provided any reason that anyone should accept ANY demand from ANY other human being. Third, since it is YOU who decide which demands you will make, in principle you can add new demands at any time (even retroactively if you're like modern authoritarians). And so forth.
So if you bother to answer with some content, some defense of your position, please answer whether you think you and others would be better off living on planet #1 or planet #2. And state why? And where you get your fictitious authority. And don't point to anyone else, including some fictitious entity like god or government, because it is YOU who advocate authoritarianism in your messages. That was your decision. So defend it. And do answer the question, you prefer to live on planet #1 or planet #2... and why.
And explain how I am wrong. You want to destroy my life if I do not follow EVERY directive you support. I do not want to harm you, much less destroy your life. So how can you say my claim that you are a predator and I am not be anything but FACTUALLY ACCURATE and very much on point?
-----
PS: You need to have yourself thrown in a cage for a few years, all your savings confiscated, your ability to get a job permanently ruined... all because you violated some demand issued by some predatory authoritarian. And THEN come back and tell me how wonderful you consider predatory authoritarianism. Or better yet, have all that happen to you because some scum-sucking cop high on his "authority" plants drugs in your car, or simply claims you had drugs in your car. And after a few years you find you are super lucky and they figure out what happens and let you go. Still worth living on a predatory authoritarian planet? You can't answer that question until you actually go through that experience. And don't laugh at my formulation. With over a million pages of "laws", and untold billions of pages of "regulations", you should DEFINITELY be in jail for life. And everyone should, if you accept authoritarianism like you do.
Honestann, re-read my posts. I have not suggested locking people up. I am merely advocating education with respect to Cocaine. Everyone in society should be taught that cocaine is a neurotoxin, and is neurotoxic to the brain in any amount. This means that cocaine taken in any amount can, and does, cause real, and not imagined, central nervous system damage. Children are not taught that cocaine can damage their brains. Schools do not actually tell children that cocaine is a neurotoxin. They give students no literature regarding neurotoxicity and the brain. Most people in society think cocaine is a stimulant drug because that's how pharmacology classifies it. Nowhere in the advisory classifications does it indicate that Cocaine is a neurotoxin. This allows the bureaucratic policy wonks to avoid classification based on neurotoxicity. Educators teach based on advisory recommendation that is imparted through policy. If Government does not classify based on neurotoxicity no warnings to potential victims of cocaine will be forthcoming. ERGO, the only solution is informed consent and basic education on the brain, and drugs that are commonly used.
Note: Please Google _transference neurosis_, Honestann.
You are wacko if you think kids understand what "neurotoxin" means. Therefore, your complaint that kids are not told "cocaine is a neurotoxin" is absurd. Now, are kids told "cocaine is harmful"? Are kids told "cocaine will mess up your brain"? If not, you live on a different planet than I do.
If there actually is some real place on earth where a kid could grow up and NOT be told cocaine is bad news... then that is a very strange place indeed.
More likely the problem is... kids have no way to know how bad cocaine, whiskey, wine, beer, froot loops, chef boyardee ravioli and endless other consumable items are, because they are never informed how terrible the usual crap most people eat is.
Far, far, far worse, kids are not told how horrific and destructive authoritiarianism is. Just the opposite. They are forced EVERY FREAKING DAY to stand up, place their hands over their hearts, and pledge obedience to a piece of cloth, and then told pledging obedience is what constitutes "liberty and justice for all".
In case you don't get the subtext of the above couple paragraphs, I'll say it explicitly. Kids are lied to nearly every minute of every day. While they absorb and nominally believe vastly too much BS, they can't help but recognize that virtually if not every adult and "authority" they've ever encountered is a MASSIVE LIAR.
And so, when someone like you tells them "cocaine is a neurotoxin", or even just "cocaine is absolutely horrible mind-destroying chemical rot"... they will not know whether to believe you or assume you are just feeding them more of the typical lies and BS that adults and mainstream media jam down their throats every minute of every day.
I have to laugh at the notion someone like you would choose an issue like this and make such a huge deal about it. You want cocaine declared a neurotoxin. Who gives a crap when they don't know what a neurotoxin is? Who gives a crap when 55% of products containing high fructose corn syrup contain heavy metal neuro-toxins, and these products are consumed by vastly, vastly, vastly greater numbers of kids and adults alike.
It is almost like you point at one star in the galaxy and make a huge deal about that star. Sorry, there are hundreds of billions more in the galaxy, and they are just as significant as the one you choose to make a big deal of.
Is cocaine really, really, really bad stuff. I assume so without proof (and in my case, without any evidence). All I know is, I don't want anything that might harm my brain or mind, and I know of hundreds of concepts that are just as harmful as cocaine. Like "authority". Like "nation". Like "law".
If you want to choose this narrow mission, I have a better idea for you. Take a bunch of kids to a hospital and show them kids going through cocaine withdrawal or other nasty consequences. Or perhaps even better, take them to a mental institution full of kids whose brains are permanently fried by cocaine and other "bad stuff" (including alcohol). You will cause vastly more positive consequences this way, because you aren't playing games with words (especially words they won't understand, but will cause cops and DAs to totally destroy their lives).
Or perhaps best of all, teach them about individualism. Teach them not to believe ANYTHING that ANYONE says. EVER. Once they do that, you will have accidentally protected them from "peer pressure", which is likely the reason 90% of those who take cocaine did so in the first place.
And make no mistake, peer pressure and authority pressure are responsible for many thousands times more harm and destruction than any single issue you might choose. If you want to help them, convince them to TRUST NO ONE. Not the "cool" or "popular" kids at school. Not their teachers. Not their parents. Not the television. NOBODY. Show them how most people on this planet, either individually or behind the banner of some fiction like "corporation" or "government" are absolutely scruple-free predators who attempt to screw them over in endless ways.
You will do 100,000 times more good than any word games you could possibly play, whether you are fully accurate or full of crap. Because what is "written down", what is "published", and what is "official" has less than zero relationship with reality or honesty or what is important to them.
And if you're worried about "informed consent", why not get out there and destroy those humans who call themselves government, because they DEMAND that our consent is irrelevant and we must obey whatever they say... PERIOD. If you care about consent, then you ought to NOT care about the word games human predators play, and fight the central "informed consent" issue of all time, the gun-backed, cage-backed, death-backed demand that they can do anything they wish to you, me and everyone else, and our consent is entirely irrelevant.
But I guess you don't care about that, huh? You want to join them. You want to be paid by them directly or indirectly. And as such, you necessarily want to assure millions more kids get locked up in cages or killed, rather than helped.
And from a personal perspective, let me say this about "policy wonks". No human being on this planet, or any other planet, has any right to make policy that has anything to do with my life, your life, or the lives of anyone else. And those so-called "educators" you mention inject infinitely more (and more deadly) abstract fictional neurotoxins into human brains than all the cocaine every produced. Those so-called policy-wonks and educators are human predators, and a huge part of the problem.
No sane individual would shove unknown substances down their throats (or up their noses), including kids. The reason kids and adults take such actions is... they are not sane, they have been made radically insane by parents, teachers, friends, media and various predators posing as authorities. THAT is why kids take mind-destroying chemicals. THAT is why kids make life destroying decisions. THAT is why humans are an utterly failed species. THAT is why humans are finished. And that is why your efforts are pointless.
I up-voted you for challenging my thinking, Honestann. The ad hominem is not warrented, but I do like the fact that you are not in agreement and are not shy about taking some shots at me.

I hope they all get gonorrhea with a time-delayed side of aids....
This video is our favorite down at the gun range, a real jerk with a badge
DEA Agent Accidently shoots himself in the foot

LOL. I forgot about that video, fucking classic.
Whole room full of kids.
This 2-digit IQ keeps limping through the safety lecture.
People start to leave for some reason.
Fuckin' hilarious.
Kinda puts a whole new meaning to 'Hands up against the wall & spread 'em!'
This is the same government that will preach to and throw the average citizen under the jail for human trafficking, as long as you have a "GS-#" before your name then you are immune from prosecution for human trafficking (military will still get court martialed because they are easily replaceable and made an example of).

Ah, come on now. Give the poor DEA guys a break. Look, you're an agent posted in Cartagena. You dragged your ass into the office around 9:30, went to three long meetings to discuss new procedures for handling evidence, paperwork processing and handling informants. You went to the usual place for lunch with your Columbian counterparts and ate way too much food. You almost fell asleep at an afternoon training session on diversity in the federal workplace. In other words, a long day of tough federal employment. So, the Columbian guys take you out for cervezas and a little downtime with the local (admitedly beautiful) ladies and someone--who knows who exactly--picks up the tab. Innocent enough, right? Could happen to anyone.
On a more serious note, why does the US even need the DEA? With Obama opening the border for new Democrats . . . er, immigrants . . . , why bother worrying about dope getting into the country? Hell, most states will have legalized pot in a few more years anyway. What a waste of time and money. The fact that we've got agents wining and dining with cartel-provided prostitutes only serves to prove that the entire agency is now surplus.
Exactly, now the govt can legalize and tax drugs. Then do away with illegal search and seizures and govt supplied AK's. Win win situation
Lucky bastards
Access to untraceable money and drugs, with "missions" in locales containing sun drenched beauties, not casting the first stone on this one.
Tyranny's Refrain:

You are a criminal for saying so."

Guillotine, CAAPL list keeps getting longer.
As someone who has banged whores -and- consumed cartel cocaine in Medellin... I wish the DEA would keep their dicks out of my bitches. Nothing worse than banging a whore who has been tainted by Govt dick.
For those who made "glory holes" in the doors... why? Easier to fantasize it is a dude sucking your DEA dick?
The Balkans . yet again comes to mind .. http://www.thebellforum.com/showthread.php?t=16038 The drug trade in the Balkans generates hundreds of millions of dollars per year. Although American media reports coming out of Kosovo before and during the NATO war worried about the penury of Kosovo Albanian "freedom fighters," the KLA did not have to conduct bake sales to raise money for their arms. "Kosovo Albanians used drug money to buy weapons in Italy [and] sent them to Kosovo," Agence France- Presse reported in June 1999.19
Western sources knew that the drugs- for- arms trade was flourishing. The European Union in Brussels in 1994 published a report saying that traffickers from Macedonia and Kosovo paid for weapons with heroin.20 Jane's Intelligence Review noted the link between Albanian criminal gangs, who distribute heroin, and Central Asians, who supply heroin and get weapons by raiding the armories of the former U.S.S.R., "a multi- billion dollar enterprise."21 In June, State Department spokesman Jamie Rubin said with a straight face that the U.S. government "never identified credible evidence of drug running charges."22 But the London Daily Telegraph wrote in April that Christopher Hill, U.S. chief negotiator and architect of the Rambouillet Agreement, was a "strong critic of the KLA for its alleged dealings in drugs."23 Fine a war the USSA or NATO is involved in .. and you will find the connecting factor to every kind fo perversion .. drugs, human trafficking .. we have met the BEAST and it is USSA.
You'd think that trained agents would know how to not get caught. If you are going to be a dirty yankee thug agent, do it right...jeesh.
Are you honestly surprized?
That is what prohibition was for in the 1920's.
That is what prohibition is for today.
It provides the Cartels with increased price for their products and selective enforcement to keep the small time players, the 'Tony Montana' types out. And it provides governments with ample opportunity to expand.
There is a reason why all the glitterati and even politicians are well known to indulge in illegal drugs without consequence that would land the rest of us in prison.
It is about meal tickets all around that otherwise would not exist.
The 'War on Drugs' is just another policy for sale... and the buyers are the cartels themselves.

Hope they had good health coverage.
That test they took to become DEA agents didn't include common sense.
If I ran the cartel, I would have supplied the most attractive and diseased women possible.
Die mother fvckers.
Cartels don't want those agents dead. They facilitate getting the drugs into the country. The United States corporation, I mean government, is the biggest drug dealer/facilitator on the planet
Stupid to play with fire in a foreign country.
meanwhile in Washington DC..........President Bush and President Obama whom both had posession of the world's biggest meth dealer Ye Gon took a pass on prosecution, or even extradition.
Here is the Ye Gon Mexican bedroom "bust pic" http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/64/YeGon_millions.jpg
Where is Ye now?

They fly in smoking hottt chicks to Gitmo to bang the hell out of the prisoners while wearing devil goat masks and smattered with blood so this shouldn't be news.
Those aren't masks...they really are goats.
Look it up.
We have an ex DEA agent who posts here who now is bangin Asian chicks overseas. His service to his country may have caused a sex addiction :). I would like him to weigh in here and maybe add some good stories.
One DEA agent stationed in a Latin American country once told me that people within the agency joked about its abbreviation as meaning "don't expect anything" but it is probably better to assume "do expect anything".
and I'm sure not a one of them snorted a line off a hookers ass. those guys are dirty as hell.
There is no American government. It does not exist. These are illegal mafia agencies. Get ready for the reset.
I know people don't think it can happen but this sucker is going to come off the wheels. There will be a price to pay and the goobermint won't have one option before them that is viable. You won't see cops and/or military standing in the way of many things........it just won't work that way. Not now. Not this time.
We are in a unique period. Nothing is fastened down. It's chaos and a "free for all" everywhere you look. Nothing works like it should (or did) anymore. Nothing.
It's all a misunderstanding. The DEA guys were in training because they are in the process of transferring to the secret service.
“solicited consensual sex with anonymous partners and modified a hotel room door to facilitate sexual play.”
They drilled a cock hole?
Unpossible! The TEEVEE network news and morning shows have me believing that ALL government employees and officials are selfless and beyond reproach!
Wage salery bonus.
Goverment Crime Syndicate needs the 3 letter agencies to keep their monopoly on drugs, prostitution and gun running. They couldn't skim so much if it was made legal.
Its a dangerous, thankless job. Prostitutes have few choices who their customers are.
this is old news
The wheels came off a long time ago....but this train wreck of a country still rolls along just like the cartoon character suspended in mid-air ofter walking off a cliff.
It probably only happened a half a dozen times or so last year. Just on months when central bankers weren't hosting their bimonthly sex parties.
All of those parties were financed by Uncle Sam. What form of currency do you think was used to purchase the booze and hookers?
Why? Do you think it will make a difference on their GDP numbers?
Come on? You're deeper than that? ;-)
Can our government possibly be any more depraved and corrupt?
The people deserve the government that they ask for, and deserve to get them good and hard.
Poor me, I am one of "the people". :(
All this means is they need a budget increase and a new crony director. It's simple, see?
When are people going to realize that the only reason the DEA exists is to eliminate the CIA's competition?
Yeah that's probably why they were having fun in the hotel. Because if they were seriously trying to arrest the gang leader, they might arrest someone from the CIA.
The govt beast is trying to capture its own tail. Thanks amerikan taxpayers for believing in govt first. We're here to help and by god we're going to find those that are responsible. What a f**in joke on us.
DEAP CAPTURE
Thankfully, the rest of the executive branch is pure as the driven snow and this aberration will be dealt with in an appropriately punitive fashion.
The DEA filmed the sex parties and sold the videos to the SEC....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXq9mjZh214.........................seems appropriate
Drugs are illegal because the police and corrections officers would have a 75% chance of being out of a job the next year. Yes, it's that simple.
It wasn't quite clear to me....were these female or male prostitutes? Or perhaps some of each? ...and a few trannies thrown in, just for political correctness.
Do they party with the SEC?
Where was Bill Clinton? Things that make you go hummmmmmmmmm
They had worked for the SEC previously, so they had some prior knowledge of hookers and blow :p
I always thought this was about whores on drugs, and I was right.
Sadly, this game is over. The pathetic Americans have given way to their little wienies. Weak bastards!
Hard to believe the shot callers are halfway around the world in an innocent little place that makes clocks and chocolate (well, they don't make it, they steal it, like your water in California but that's another story...) OCTOGON - Fortress Alps. It's not a BANK. It's a VAULT!

This man helps make the math a whole lot easier!
Under cover agents doing undercover work, or undercover agents doing under cover work. You decide.
So what makes you think any chick would F&%$ these LOSERS for free?
edit
No wonder the DEA wants more War on Drugs. War apparently has its benfits.
Our tax dollars at work.
Just leave everything up to Gov.
They always look out for your best interest.
Uhh, why is this a top story on this site? This is a sensationalized headline and I thought ZH was supposed to be above that. Give me IMPORTANT news
Who would have thought that DEA guys would turn out to be so cool.
They're prolly railing chicks on a bed of blow.
I'm making over $7k a month working part time. I kept hearing other people tell me how much money they can make online so I decided to look into it. Well, it was all true and has totally changed my life. This is what I do... www.globe-report.com
Some wise guy said it would be the level of hypocrisy that would bring the whole charade down. Real nice. Think on all the peeps the DEA has put away for the very thing they've been doing. Not only put people away, but sign them up as slaves to corporations when thet're put in the slammer. These guys should be shot right between the eyes with a frozen ball of their own shit.
