Drug Trafficking Organizations (DTOs)

Drug Trafficking Organizations (DTOs) are criminal groups that produce, transport, and distribute illegal drugs. They operate across various regions, often using complex networks to evade law enforcement. DTOs can vary in size and structure, ranging from small local gangs to large international cartels. Their activities not only involve drug sales but also include money laundering and violent crime to maintain control and influence. DTOs significantly impact public health, safety, and security, contributing to addiction and related societal issues. Combating these organizations requires coordinated efforts from law enforcement and communities.
