This documentary takes a look behind the scenes of the world of the Mexican drug mafia. In doing so, it uncovers a neglected and dangerous group of actors: lawyers. What role do they play in the cartel system? The report delves into the dark world of organized crime, a world that thrives on illicit money, corruption and fear. Lawyers, at first glance guardians of law and justice, are part of this world. The cartels not only enforce their rules with terror, but have also developed a highly efficient legal defense system overseen by highly experienced narco-lawyers who are the cornerstone of a complex legal system around drug trafficking. They embody the interaction between drug trafficking and local legal, political and financial structures. How do they use their legal knowledge and connections to protect the interests of the drug cartels? What is their motivation? What about their integrity? Lawyers in Mexico, Colombia and the United States provide details of a relentless reality. International INTERPOL experts, UN advisers and local journalists also weigh in on the story. #dwdocumentary #documentary #mexico #colombia ـــــ DW Documentary brings you information beyond the headlines.
