Although the United States has established a sound anti-drug legal system, as early as 1956, the United States Congress declared heroin contraband, and in 1985 passed the Comprehensive Crime Control Act, and the current sentencing of drug crimes in the United States is based on the United States Sentencing Guidelines and previous precedents of courts at all levels.

The Drug Scale and Drug Conversion Table in the United States Sentencing Guide, nearly 100 kinds of drugs are included, explained in the form of annotations, concise and practical, and are clearly seen by law enforcement personnel and ordinary people.

In late September 2006, the leaders of the Colombian cali drug cartel, 67-year-old Silveto Orehuela and Miguel Orejuela, 63, were tried in the United States and sentenced to 30 years in prison, respectively, for smuggling cocaine into the United States.

As we all know, Colombia is the "hardest hit area" of drug crime in the world, it is the world's largest drug barter, drug dealers are so arrogant that even the president is quite helpless. Pablo Escobar, once the leader of Colombia's largest drug cartel, was also featured in Fortune magazine and was voted the seventh richest man in the world.

This man had buried the president's cousin Yi Liwei alive, and even dared to lead 40,000 troops to confront the president, but he never sold drugs to China.

According to the provisions of China's Criminal Law, smuggling, trafficking, transportation and manufacture of narcotics, regardless of the quantity, should be investigated for criminal responsibility and given criminal punishment. According to article 347 of the Criminal Law of our country, smuggling, trafficking, transporting and manufacturing drugs, regardless of the quantity, should be investigated for criminal responsibility and given criminal punishment.

Mexican drug king Pablo: with 40,000 soldiers, he is the 7th richest man in the world

Born in 1949, although his mother was a devout Believer, Pablo could not find a good way out due to the poverty of his family, initially stealing and selling tombstones for a living, and Pablo admired the mafia leader Al Capone and wanted to be a professional killer.

But Pablo eventually embarked on a path of drug trafficking and became the first to turn cocaine production into a large-scale export trade, and while Pablo continued to ship drugs from the United States, the local poor in Colombia were grateful to Pablo for building them churches, hospitals and houses.

So Pablo is also known as the "Robin Hood of Latin America."

However, the Americans did not allow Pablo to act recklessly, making American society a miasma and filled with drugs, so he put pressure on Colombia, but the arrogant Pablo was not afraid of the official. In March 1984, under the command of U.S. military advisers, 5,000 Colombian government troops directly attacked Pablo's lair.

But a month later, Pablo fought back, shooting and killing the Colombian drug commander-in-chief and even storming the Colombian Ministry of Justice to confront senior officials, forcing the Colombian Defense Forces to join the fighting.

The Colombian attorney general tried to arrest Pablo, but Pablo in turn offered a reward of 100 million yuan, resulting in the prosecutor general's body in the street, and the arrested police officer was shot and killed within three days.

Pablo had a well-equipped private army of forty thousand men, and his plane belonged to the Colombian Navy and had the title of "air tank", but Pablo sent three fighter jets to force the combat helicopter to land at his airfield and take possession of it.

In 1989, NASA used state-of-the-art technology to confirm Pablo's exact location, and the Colombian government launched the largest anti-drug operation ever, also because Pablo's assassination of presidential candidates had posed a great threat to the authorities.

However, although the Medellín base was razed to the ground, Pablo miraculously escaped until 1991, when Pablo proposed three conditions and chose to surrender, the Colombian government agreed to his terms, and Pablo was admitted to a luxurious prison.

But Pablo, fearful of being extradited to the United States for trial, fled prison on July 22, 1992. However, Pablo was still doomed, and on December 2, 1993, Pablo was killed by the military.

Although Colombia had been fighting drugs and implementing alternative crop cultivation programs, the drug problem had become a persistent problem in Colombia, and long-term poverty was considered to be the most fundamental cause of Colombians growing drug crops and producing drugs.
