US EditionFormer DEA agent charged with agreeing to launder millions of dollars for Mexican drug cartel
Paul Campo and Robert Sensi conspired to launder $12 million and convert $750,000 to cryptocurrency for the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, prosecutors say.
- Paul Campo, a former DEA agent, and Robert Sensi were charged with agreeing to launder $12 million in drug proceeds for a Mexican cartel and providing payment for 220 kilograms of cocaine.
- Campo boasted about his law enforcement experience and offered to be a strategist for the cartel, while Sensi had previous convictions for fraud and was engaged in a scheme to procure military-grade helicopters.
- DEA Administrator Terrance Cole said the allegations undermine trust in law enforcement, and the agency has placed new controls on money laundering stings and can now fire agents for serious misconduct.
