The Dimension of Mexican Organized Crime September2011
The risk ,[object Object]
The lack of a national security and crime policy, has been a fertile ground for corruption in law enforcement agencies, government and society.
Internal disputes among the Cartels, the competition for entry points into the U.S. and increased revenues from local markets (drugs, prostitution, extortion and black market activities), have resulted in over 45,000 murders that include police, military, prosecutors, elected officials and politicians as well as innocent civilians.
At times urban and large cities, in the country have been controlled for up to two days by the DTO’s.
The Mexican government does not have a consistent strategy due to a lack of institutional capacity and  bureaucratic  infighting, the result is an incoherent public policy and failed attempts to deal with the problem.
This analysis will provide an overview of the situation based on a market explanation and the possible scenario if the current policy is not changed.,[object Object]

  • 26. DTO’s are “outsourcing” violence to local criminals and specialized groups to isolate the “business unit” from the “protection unit”.
  • 27. “Going after the hitman” will not reduce the size or revenue of DTO’s.
