Great to be in Orlando visiting with our brilliant law enforcement partners at the International Association of Chief’s of Police (IACP) Conference - one of the world’s largest law enforcement conferences attended by more than 20,000 LEO professionals, leaders, and partners who have worked with this FBI to deliver the most prolific run of crime reduction in American history. 20% reduction in the national murder rate; the largest single year decrease in violent crime since 1936; 54,000+ violent crime arrests for this @FBI, up 90% - and so much more. We continue to grow and strengthen our partnerships, working together on intelligence sharing, training on key technologies like drones, using Superintelligence to better triage tips and information, crushing Scam Centers across the globe stealing from Americans, and sending 1,500+ personnel out in the field to support crime reduction across the country. And as we do every meeting with our partners, we emphasized one of our most important messages: Backing the Blue is here to stay. If you touch a cop, this FBI will put you down. To the men and women who answer the call every day - thank you for your service, your courage, and your commitment. This FBI is proud to stand with you.

Siete ciudadanos colombianos fueron entregados a los @USMarshalsHQ y extraditados a EE.UU. por delitos relacionados con narcotráfico, lavado de activos y fraude transnacional. Entre ellos están alias ‘Mocho Olmedo’, señalado cabecilla del Frente 33, alias ‘Cholo Banano’, identificado como presunto financiador del ‘Clan del Golfo’, y alias ‘Chocó’ o ‘Ñato’, vinculado al ‘Tren de Aragua’ y ‘La Inmaculada’. La operación, liderada por la @DIJINPolicia y la @PoliciaColombia, representa un avance en la cooperación judicial internacional contra las redes criminales y sus fuentes de financiación. Seguimos trabajando con las autoridades internacionales para perseguir el crimen organizado y llevar ante la justicia a quienes delinquen en la Patria Milagro.

A leader of the FARC‑EP dissident group “Frente 33” has been extradited from Colombia to the Southern District of Florida to face federal charges for his alleged role in an international cocaine trafficking and money laundering conspiracy. According to court records, the operation moved multi‑kilogram quantities of cocaine and facilitated the flow of illicit proceeds across borders. This case reflects our nation's commitment to pursuing transnational criminal networks wherever they operate and ensuring that those who traffic dangerous drugs into the United States are brought to justice. @TheJusticeDept @USMarshalsHQ @DEAHQ

¡SIETE NARCOTRAFICANTES CAPTURADOS CON FINES DE EXTRADICIÓN A ESTADOS UNIDOS! En una operación simultánea en Bogotá, Barranquilla, Maicao y Cajicá, nuestro Ejército Nacional, a través de la Quinta División y la Brigada 13, en coordinación con la DEA y el CTI-SIU, logró la captura de 7 personas requeridas por la justicia estadounidense por delitos relacionados con concierto para delinquir, lavado de activos y tráfico de drogas. Los capturados son señalados de integrar estructuras criminales dedicadas a coordinar el envío de múltiples cargamentos de droga hacia Estados Unidos. Seguiremos golpeando las finanzas, las redes logísticas y las estructuras del narcotráfico. Quienes se enriquecen con este negocio criminal deben responder ante la justicia, en Colombia o en el exterior. Nuestra cooperación internacional contra el narcotráfico seguirá siendo firme y contundente. ¡No habrá refugio para quienes delinquen! ¡Bienvenidos a la Patria Milagro! ¡Firme por la Patria! ¡Que viva Cristo Rey! (A.D.L.E) 🇨🇴🐅

International cooperation delivers results. Acting DAAG Brian Skaret met with Montenegro’s Justice Minister Bojan Božović to build on our strong partnership. From high-value extraditions to fighting transnational organized crime, Montenegro is an instrumental law enforcement partner to the United States. @PravdaCG

Sinaloa Cartel Drug Transporter Pleads Guilty to International Drug Trafficking: Case Is Part of @HSTaskForce Initiative “Juan Hernandez Ochoa will no longer be able to enrich himself by pushing poison into our communities thanks to the prosecutors involved in this case and the Homeland Security Task Force (HSTF) initiative established by President Trump,” said @AAGDuva. “Today’s guilty plea is another major blow to the Sinaloa Cartel and the transnational criminal organizations that profit from addiction, violence, and death.

.@AAGDuva this morning on the sentencing announcement with @USAO_WDTX: "Today's sentence reflects the strength of our resolve to pursue justice for those who were killed in this horrific crime. It shows the Justice Department's commitment to hold those who treat people like cargo accountable. This is a warning to callous smugglers and criminals around the world: No matter where you operate, we will find you and prosecute you."
🚨 The Guatemalan national who was extradited to the United States has been SENTENCED to 30 years in prison for his involvement in the 2022 Mass casualty alien smuggling event in San Antonio, Texas. "These smugglers value profits over people, and their disregard of the risks or dangerous conditions in which they carry out their schemes too often result in tragic consequences like in this case with 53 people dead. Under @POTUS Trump, @DOJCrimDiv and Joint Task Force Alpha (JTFA) will sustain maximum pressure on these dangerous criminals to hold them accountable for preventable tragedies and protect our borders.” -@AAGDuva Read more: justice.gov/opa/pr/guatemala…
