Investigators say drug cartels funded DEA ‘sex parties’ overseas [1]

Foreign drug cartels funded ‘sex parties’ attended by Drug Enforcement Administration agents serving overseas, Justice Department investigators say in a new report.

A foreign police officer alleged that “prostitutes funded by the local drug cartels” were provided the DEA agents “at their government-leased quarters, over a period of several years,” according to the report issued Thursday by the department’s Office of Inspector General [2].

“Although some of the DEA agents participating in these parties denied it, the information in the case file suggested they should have known the prostitutes in attendance were paid with cartel funds,” the OIG investigators stated.
