The DEA was called when three men purchased expensive vehicles with cash. A DEA agent put them under surveillance and started interviewing their constituents. During questioning, a pilot told authorities about the entire operation of marijuana and cocaine smuggling and fingered the leader of this group as Carlos Lehder, the notorious drug kingpin. The DEA's extensive international investigation culminated in the conviction of all the individuals in this smuggling ring, including Carlos Lehder
