The Conspiracy Revealed: A True Account of the Investigation of the "Cowboy Mafia"

"An Agent answers a routine telephone call, and is drawn into a late night confrontation involving the seizure of twenty tons of marijuana. Defendants begin to talk and suddenly it becomes a one hundred ton marijuana conspiracy. Along the way, battles are fought among Federal judicial districts for authority to prosecute. The Deputy Attorney General, Rudy
Giuliani, settles the dispute and awards the investigation to
Beaumont, Texas over New York.
At the close of the investigation, two King Pins, over thirty people, and a corrupt public offi cial have been prosecuted along with the seizure of millions of dollars in assets; and along the way, people have died. Still, there remained a question of justice."
