How Foreign Drug Operations Are Taking Over California’s Desert Towns: Jorge Ventura

Desert towns in California have seen a dramatic increase of illegal marijuana plantations, operating through means of water theft, human trafficking, and violence.

Due to Proposition 64: The Adult Use of Marijuana Act, which lowered penalties on illegal marijuana growers, the black market in California is out of control.

My guest today is Jorge Ventura, an investigative reporter, who has dug deep into this issue and produced the documentary “Cartelville,” which shows the extent of these operations.

Today, he will explain how the cartels are taking over the desert towns in southern California and their impact on communities.
