Led by the Orejuela brothers and their associates, the cartel operated with a sophisticated network of distribution channels and money laundering schemes. They used their immense wealth to corrupt government officials, bribe law enforcement, and intimidate rivals.

The DEA's Investigation

As the Cali Cartel's influence grew, so did the DEA's determination to bring them down. In 1995, the agency launched a massive investigation codenamed "Operation Green Ice." A team of DEA agents and Colombian law enforcement officers worked tirelessly to gather evidence and infiltrate the cartel's organization.

The investigation involved meticulous surveillance, undercover operations, and the recruitment of informants within the cartel. Agents risked their lives to gather intelligence on the cartel's operations, finances, and key players.
