6abc.com: "PHILADELPHIA - September 15, 2011 (WPVI) -- Officials say they have broken up a drug pipeline that funneled narcotics from Mexico to the Philadelphia area.
The D.A. said the investigation led to the discovery of a direct link between those dealers and the Sinaloa Cartel, which operates from Sinaloa and Juarez, Mexico. Those arrests followed a five month investigation. Investigators determined that members of the Sinaloa Cartel were negotiating with Philadelphia drug traffickers to become the exclusive distributor of the cartel's heroin, cocaine and marijuana product throughout the city and the surrounding region."

I monitor and analyze international press on Mexico, with a focus on security, immigration, human rights and social movements for peace and justice, from a feminist perspective. And sometimes I simply muse.
