7 Reasons for Describing Venezuela as a ‘Mafia State’

Venezuela does not have a long tradition of organized crime. Indeed, until very recently it was the Colombian mafias who controlled much of the drug trafficking, extortion and kidnapping, and these were largely confined to the border states.

Today crime is rampant, and Venezuela is likely the kidnap capital of Latin America, although there is no hard data to support this claim.
For decades Colombia exported conflict and criminality to Venezuela, as that country’s civil conflict spilled over the frontier. Colombian drug trafficking organizations and warring factions set up shop, turning Venezuela into a logistics base, safe haven and one of the principal transit nations for Colombian cocaine.

Is Colombia’s justice system too weak to try the powerful Uribe?

Geez, I never knew this about Uribe.. I thought he was such a crime fighter when he was president, if this is all true, he is one big hypocritical cocksucker. Even for a politician..

You can say the same about the Americans who worked with them, they knew this in 1991, months after the Ochoa brothers and Escobar turned themselves in, Uribe’s ties had been picked up by the US ‘ Defense Intelligence Agency, which claimed the then-senator was “dedicated to collaboration with the Medellin Cartel,” according to declassified documents.
