Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) John Morton (2nd R) points to a picture of smuggled cash during a news conference with General Luis Alberto Moore of the Colombian National Police and Administrator Alfredo Gutierrez Mena (R) of the Mexican Tax Administration Service (SAT) at ICE headquarters in Washington September 28, 2009. The ICE announced more than $41 million in U.S. currency were seized in Colombia and Mexico. The suspected drug trafficking proceeds, hidden in bundles of fertilizer in shipping containers that were seized in ports in Mexico and Colombia, represent the largest-ever bulk cash seizure from containers for the agencies involved.
