Summary
Aaron Graham started off as a San Diego police officer but went to DEA to concentrate on cartel activity originating from Mexico because he had seen first-hand growing up the devastation that had been inflicted. He worked with Steve Murphy and Javier Pena to follow up leads during the manhunt for Pablo Escobar, but after retirement began working with pharmaceutical companies to Identify and stop the counterfeiting of everything from cough syrup to cancer medications. The money generated from this illegal activity was funding cartels, criminal gangs and terrorism. Aaron gives us insight on what it takes to make a case and why it is so important.
