Summary It's been four years since Mexico's president Felipe Calderon declared war on Mexico's most powerful drug cartels. During this time, several high-ranking members from various criminal organizations have been killed or detained by the Mexican State. Nevertheless, the overall strategy of meeting force with force has only yielded limited results in stemming the escalation of violence at the many fronts where this war is being fought. Money laundering - which funds the operational structure of these criminal groups - remains largely intact. The arsenal of illegal weapons, which continues to flow into Mexico from the United States, Central and South America, has produced over 35,000 deaths. Each state in the republic has a different story to tell. This is the story of Ciudad Juarez. View more details
