Colombian official pleads guilty in court about laundering Tamp’s money

The Columbia Customs Worker has recognized his role on Tuesday in bribing and the implementation of more than $ 1 million per income from drugs in the case that threatens to expose dirty agreements between US drug agents and their informants.

The surprise of Omar Ambuli’s fault in the guilty guilty in one calculation of the conspiracy to make the money laundering came, on the second day of his trial in the Federal Court in Tampa.

63 -year -old Amwula was extracted to the United States from Colombia in 2023. He faces up to 20 years in prison in April.

It was expected that the proceedings would shed a new light on a scandal that led to that The range of misconduct during the dea Investigation of money laundering around the world.

Among the witnesses called to testify by the government were Jose IrrisarryThe notoriously corrupt DEA agent who served a long prison federal term for his role in a closely related plotting of money laundering.

For the first time, the US domestic income service and the US Department of Internal Security arrived after his daughter placed photos that wore design handbags, took a gorgeous vacation to Paris and ride $ 330,000.

“People suggest that because they can’t do it, you can’t do it too,” Jenny Amvula wrote in Facebook, where she shows a photo of Lamborghini. “Prove them wrong.”

WITH a luxurious, fabulous lifestyle Of the 20th graduates, Miami university did not respond to her modest income as an influential social media or her father, who earned about $ 2,000 a month as a mid-level manager in the main port of Colombia in Buenaventur, the main transit point of cocaine related to the United States.

A piece of funds used in 2016 to pay for Lamborghini Huracan Spyder, which arose in the account controlled by John Marin, whom the Criminal Investigator IRS described in court as a nephew based in Florida, a “famous smuggler in Kolumbia”.

Previously, the Associated Press investigated a smuggler as Diego Marina, a long -standing DEA informant, known as investigators as “Kolumbia King” for alleged money laundering with imported devices and other goods. Required government records obtained by AP are described by Marin as a one-time source of US law enforcement agencies, which was eventually deactivated and then managed by federal books “from books”.

For many years, DEA agents have divorced Marina all over the world after they allegedly focused on him, showing records when Marin often recruits a bill on dinner and prostitutes.

Two Marina lawyers refused to comment on this case.

Marin was not accused of the United States, but prosecutors in Colombia were asked for his extradition from Spain, where he lived to face criminal charges.

In an unusual step, Columbia President Gustavo spoke with his Spanish colleague about this case and described Marina in publication on social networks as the main “smuggling of smuggling and money laundering”.

However, Marin, who has Spanish citizenship, was released on bail during the fight against extradition. Then he allegedly fled and was later captured in Portugal, where he remains prisoners.

Hyrrisarry that serves 12-year-old sentence for his crimes, AP is described as Marin has bribed officials in Colombia and gifted prostitutes, expensive dishes and tickets to US anticotic agents, trying to avoid arrest. He filed a similar account with a federal investigator, stating that DEA agents had falsified government records of Marina to justify the justification of international travel.

Irrisarri’s case emphasized the constant use of the so -called DEA Prosecutor General, who released operations with tens of millions of dollars a year on behalf of the most rigid drug cartels in the world through Shell. Agents describe Ageos as a reliable tool that has led to high -level arrests and cocaine seizures.

But DEA also encountered criticism for allowing huge money in operations so that they are not available, which allows the cartels to continue to run their trade, and is not able to track and track bites, which complicates their results.

In Tampa’s Federal Court on Tuesday, Ambuil did not show emotions, as the US Judge Virginia Ernandez-Kongton complained about a considerable amount of money that the US Department of Justice spent only two days in preparation for trial. Recently this month, prosecutors led by Joseph Palazzo proposed Ambuila Agreement to recognize guilt, which recommends that you take time.

“I feel not to spend public expenditures,” the judge said.
