$205 Million in cold hard cash seized

[caudio51]

MEXICO CITY — Authorities confiscated more than $200 million in U.S. currency from methamphetamine producers in one of this city's ritziest neighborhoods, they said Friday, calling it the largest drug cash seizure in history.

The seizure reflected the vast scope of an illegal drug trade linking Asia, Mexico and the United States, officials said. Two of the seven people arrested Thursday at a faux Mediterranean villa in the Lomas de Chapultepec neighborhood were Chinese nationals.

It must be really hard for the cops to just let that money chill in a pile. Nobody would notice a missing stack. That takes some willpower.

Wow! That is a lot of cash!

Looking at that image and how much drug activity that went on to create that amount of money it would seem that the Feds would have little time to worry about a certian trade embargo with a small island south of Miami...:scratchhe

You know some of it will come up missing. I'd put money on it considering how corrupt the Mexican gov't is.
