Jose Antonio Diaz, 30, Adolfo Sanchez-Rios, 37, and Luis Manueal Castaneda Robles, 31, all citizens of Mexico, pleaded guilty to the charges that stemmed from their actions smuggling the drugs in hidden vehicle compartments, then funneling the cash back out of the state the same way, the U.S. attorney said. During one shipment in April 2007, the men sent 10 kilograms of cocaine, according to the U.S. attorney.
The two-year investigation resulted in law enforcement officers seizing more than $350,000 in cash that was on its way out of the state, prosecutors said. The men are scheduled to be sentenced in May. They each face a mandatory minimum of 10 years in prison, prosecutors said.
