About this listen
What’s a successful, illegal drug business without money laundering? Drugs ship out… cash avalanches in. This is the episode of a Taste of Vice Podcast, when your host, Jonas Sears discusses the invasion of foreign gangsters during the Mariel Boatlift in 1980 - some of whom referred to members of his unit as “Los Perros Locos” (the mad dogs). He also talks about a money laundering investigation and corruption case that his outfit partnered with the effective Federal task force, Operation Greenback. As smuggling boss, Frank Lopez told “Marielito“ Tony Montana in Brian de Palma’s Scarface, “You're gonna move up fast. And you'll find out your biggest problem is not bringing in the stuff, but what to do with all the f*cking cash!”
