Hector Berrellez: Cartels Sell Weed in US Dispensaries, Kill Owner if They Don't Pay (Part 9)

--------
In this clip, Hector Berrellez spoke to VladTV about the various ways cartels smuggle drugs into the U.S. He spoke about sophisticated tunnel systems equipped with lighting and other infrastructure. These dynamics have changed with the increased legality of marijuana in the U.S. Now, the cartels grow marijuana within the U.S., even owning many of the growers in California. In addition, they reportedly finance the opening of dispensaries under the name of legitimate citizens while controlling the bulk of the profits. High levels of cartel violence in Mexico and corrupt alliances with political parties and army generals further complicate the situation. The potential solution would involve tackling pervasive corruption, requiring both Mexican and American political will and potentially military intervention.

Hector is right. for years i have wondered why USA won't do something about Mexico. i know it's dirty politics.

[jakeharmon]

Hector is by far on my top 3 guests of this channel.

[desmondnaugler]

As somebody whos done some of the biggest and best farms in michigan with foam insulation.we have muti acre weed grows indoors and outdoors in michigan .no cartels a lot of ex cops and rich white guys and arabs. No cartels.

[billymaltez]

Damn Better Call Saul had a lot of truths in that show. Even the German engineers jeeeezzz lolol

[jamesjefferson]

He said that the cartel wouldn’t last a week against U.S. military and he’s right one branch can easily go in and put their lights out

[evarich]

The fact that he said this opened my eyes, a company just reached out to my family for a part of our land to grow weed on. They are offering us 30k…

[illmagnetic]

Wack: "ain't no cartels touching the homie, that's on Piru!"

[crazydave]

It's just going to get worse and worse.

[tonypalmentera]

Any gang can extort anyone at any time...if they can't call the cops due to being dirty. Otherwise, it's pretty hard to extort them. As someone from Michigan mentioned, there are ex cops everywhere, whether security or in the biz...it's not quite so easy in America.

[Philosophy_]

It all makes sense as to why so many vape shops are opening everywhere with hardly any customers going in.

[RedLeo-pfyo]

I’m shocked that they let this guy tell so much.

[senorromantico]

Vlad soon: I have a friend who used to hang out with Pablo Escobar and was good friends (referring to Vanilla Ice).

[MackMizzle]

This is true, one time I went into a trap dispensary in east LA and they’re was a guy with a huge ass gun for security. I was like damn, but then a couple months later it got raided.

[deepthought]

I LOVE ❤️ IT WHEN THE TRUTH COMES OUT! IT HAS NO FRIENDS AND HAS MANY ENEMIES!

[AKAten]

I fall asleep at the pace of these questions and hector is like yeah, come on, come on, spit it out, head dipping

[melvinacosta]

He is not wrong because they can afford the fees to pay to open the dispensary

[joseph_the_human]

They have their hand in the very lucrative Avocado industry 🥑

[traceyharris]

It’s so refreshing to NOT hear VLADS voice 💯

[coreysanders]

So that's why some dispensaries shut down and never open again in L.A.

[anonymousf]

Did this guy play in "From dusk till Dawn"?
