Rafael Caro Quintero (born October 3, 1952) is a Mexican drug trafficker who founded the now-disintegrated Guadalajara Cartel with Miguel Ángel Félix Gallardo and other drug traffickers in the 1970s. He is the brother of fellow drug trafficker Miguel Caro Quintero, the founder and former leader of the extinct Sonora Cartel who remains incarcerated.
The 1970s was a period of time where drug trafficking was lucrative
Theres no doubt that drug trafficking is lucrative and the fact that i mentioned it during the 1970s also makes it true considering that many traffickers are being mentioned in one context. The system likely didnt know that trafficking was lucrative.
