    Reviewed by: McKenzie O’Brien, May 24, 2011 Organization Attributes Sheet: Zhenli Ye Gon Organziation (formerly listed as Unnamed Chinese organization) Author: Jeff Carasiti Review: Phil Williams A. When the organization was formed + brief history This group was discovered March 15, 2007 with the seizure of a large cash pile assumed to be connected to illegal chemical imports into Mexico. The group was originally unnamed, but can legitimately be named for Chinese-born Mexican businessman Zhenli Ye Gon who possessed the alleged drug money.1 The group consisted of Ye Gon’s Unimed Pharm Chem Mexico Company, being used by Ye Gon to carry out his illegal smuggling activities.2 This company was established in April 1997.3 Ye Gon established the precursor to this company, with a man named Hongju Ye, on November 28, 1996, in Hong Kong. Named Unimedic Hong Kong Company Ltd, the company began operations as a supplier of raw materials, such as pseudoephedrine, for the pharmaceutical industry. This company became the Emerald Import and Export Corporation, and used false import documentation to transport pseudoephedrine into Mexico with Ye Gon’s Unimed Pharm Chem of Mexico.4 The large sum of money seized in Ye Gon’s home would likely have been used to start up the major lab in Toluca, Mexico State, if operations had not been disrupted by authorities.5 (See “Resources: logistical” below.) B. Types of illegal activities engaged in, a. In general Illegal importation of chemicals, production and suppliers of methamphetamines and ephedrine.

  • Global Integrity Scorecard: Mexico
    Global Integrity Scorecard: Mexico Mexico: Reporter's Notebook By Leonarda Reyes The discovery was horrifying. A headless body was left near a garbage facility covered with paper—the kind of big paper sheet children use at school for drawing. But instead of happy faces or trees or animals, the paper was covered with dark red blotches of blood. The corpse had been mutilated. One hand had four fingers missing; a fifth was placed on top of the paper sheet, along with a note that read: "This they did to me for making an anonymous phone call. They fingered me." The head was later left in a box at the entrance of a local newspaper. Who were "they"? In Tabasco, the narrow southern strip of Mexico where the crime happened, there was little doubt. "They" were the sicarios (narco-traffic hitmen). Witnesses saw eight men in three vehicles abduct the victim. The deceased was 40 years old, a concerned father and community representative who had alerted the police with what he believed to be an anonymous phone call. The message was clear: Whoever meddles with narco-trafficking will be killed, and police are not to be trusted because many are on the cartels' payroll. Today Mexicans fear both police and criminals alike. Indeed, it is becoming impossible to distinguish one from the other, since drug killers often disguise themselves as federal policemen. Mexico for many years has served as a corridor for transporting drugs from South America to supply the large drug market in the United States. Until the mid-'90s, most of the cocaine was transported in airplanes to Mexico's northern border, and drug violence was mostly isolated there.

This study examines whether the interventions impacted methamphetamine treatment admissions—an indicator of methamphetamine consequences. Design Quasi-experiment: autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA)-based intervention time–series analysis. Interventions: precursor chemical restrictions implemented beginning November 2005; major rogue precursor chemical company closed (including possibly the largest single drug-cash seizure in history) March 2007; precursor chemicals banned from Mexico (North America’s first precursor ban) August 2008. Settings Mexico and Texas (1996–2008). Measurements Monthly treatment admissions for methamphetamine (intervention series) and cocaine, heroin and alcohol (quasi-control series). Findings The precursor restriction was associated with temporary methamphetamine admissions decreases of 12% in Mexico and 11% in Texas. The company closure was associated with decreases of 56% in Mexico and 48% in Texas; these decreases generally remained to the end of the study period.
