handle is hein.gao/gaobabelc0001 and id is 1 raw text is: /Z,3700 BY THE U.S, GENERAL ACCOUNTING OFFICE Report To The Honorable Joseph R. Biden, Jr. United States Senate Investigations Of Major Drug Trafficking Organizations The enormous profits realized in drug traf- ficking are making this illegal business a continuing problem despite longstanding efforts to overcome it. Drug offenders range from individuals working independently to those in charge of major organized traffick- ing networks. The Drug Enforcement Admin- istration, the primary federal agency respon- sible for destroying major drug organizations by immobilizing leaders in these enterprises, has been joined in its efforts by the FBI and 1 2 regional task forces. Although DEA has made some headway, its classification system, which categorizes drug violators into four classes, is too broad to determine how much of its investigative effort is directed at the highest echelons of the drug traffic. To better assess results, GAO recommends that DEA revise its clas- sification system to provide a separate cate- gory for drug organizational leaders. \VXD S7?q 123700 GAO/GGD-84-36 r°eouC',Ire I MARCH 5, 1984
