Details of the case against Irizzary have emerged as Gustavo Yabrudi, the DEA informant, faces a federal case in Florida, according to the AP. Yabrudi has pleaded guilty to money laundering with assistance from an unnamed co-conspirator, who officials said was Irizarry.

Irizarry resigned from the DEA after he was recalled from Colombia in 2017, a DEA spokeswoman told the AP.

War on drugs everyone.

Maybe it's me but I'm kind of distracted by that sign.

It's possible but its also worth being aware that various LE agencies have a long track record of simply making shit up. From the valuations of their busts, to stories about exposure and malicious drug dealers displaying what would have to be a stunning amount of economic retardation (e.g doing stuff that kills their customers). A good example of such silliness: https://harmreduction.org/blog/fentanyl-exposure/

Sensationalism is a feature, not a bug, of the war on drugs. Much the same when the US was trying to wipe out communism, propaganda is ubiquitous and readily believed.
