Tijuana Violence Growing Worse with Time

Reported by: Antonio Castelan

“Drug cartels are using the media strategy to impact the public,” says Octavio Rodriguez. As a lecturer at the University of San Diego, he has followed the drug cartels for many years. He sees the cartels amping up their ways of murder. “This is propaganda to make people fear them and to let them know that they are there.”

The U.S. Government is taking notice. Ken Melson of the ATF told San Diego 6, “They have tentacles in 230 American cities. They are affecting our families, our friends, our neighbors.”
