Am I missing something? They've got maps with Italy, Mexico and the Caribbean, suggesting they're international traffickers with global supply routes, and they busted these guys with 7kg of cocaine and 5kg of weed? That doesn't make them pushers on the street corner but it a sure as hell doesn't suggest they're major importer/exporters. Actually, that does make them street pushers, or one step removed, that's less than a pound of product per dude arrested.
There's possibly a lot more stuff of them lying somewhere than the amount they were busted for? Of course. But even then the majority of these guys were probably mid-level pushers at best. But of course whenever law enforcement puts a dent in any operation, they're going to make it seem as if they've just torn an entire criminal organization to shreds.
