""Cartel leaders don't get to write the end of their stories," said Adam Gordon, the top federal prosecutor for the Southern District of California."
"Los Huistas was responsible for coordinating large-scale cocaine shipments across international borders and was one of the most prolific cocaine traffickers on the globe, prosecutors said."
"Molina-Lopez was originally charged in a 2019 federal indictment with conspiracy to distribute cocaine intended for importation to the United States and conspiracy to distribute cocaine on board a vessel."
"In 2022, the U.S. State Department offered a reward of up to $10 million for information leading to his arrest."
Eugenio Dario Molina-Lopez, also known as Dan Dario, was arrested in San Diego for allegedly leading Los Huistas, a major cocaine trafficking organization. The arrest is part of Operation Guerrilla Unit, a multi-year investigation involving the Department of Homeland Security and law enforcement in Guatemala and Mexico. Molina-Lopez has pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy to distribute cocaine. He faces a potential life sentence and a $10 million fine if convicted, with a trial setting scheduled for May 11.
