This editor would like to thank my associates for the photos. And thus without further Ado, see these amazing photos  and story below.

Yes, that is cash piled on the table in the background!

Just a small collection of guns - these people are not really dangerous at all; not.

Yes, that is real gold on these guns!

Gold and Titanium 45 Caliber semi automatic pistols - they found 16 of these!

Go and kill in the name of the Lord my son was etched!  There was a matched pair of these found.

357 Magnum semi automatic with solid gold grips.

This guy had a better gun collection then most legitimate museums do.

Just a quaint little villa in the hills - Drug money bought it all!

Man made cave and hot tub inside the home.

A collection of exotic animals - which were cared for in the grandest fashion by the way.

8 Lions were on the property.

A very rare Tiger!

The back yard pool.

Exotic art collection -  some of which was illegal to own - some stolen.

More guns than you could ever imagine!

This pile of cash before it was counted was estimated to be approximately 18 Billion Dollars!  After it was counted it turned out to be a little more than 22 Billion Dollars!

22 Billion Dollars from another angle.

Guns and more cash hidden all over the house, along with ample ammo, just in case of trouble.

Additional stacks of cash were found in every nook and cranny!

This case is filled with 100 dollar Bills estimated to be and additional 1/2 a million dollars and no doubt headed out to make another drug by perhaps from the Columbians.

Additional 18 plastic bins filled with 100 dollar bills were discovered!

Another cabinet stack tight with cash - all 100 dollar bills.

Even more 100 dollar bills!

Each of these stacks of 100 dollar bills holds $250,000 (a quarter of a million dollars)!  They also had millions in Columbian money and Mexico Pesos although they preferred American dollars for the most part.

Folks, there were even stacks of Chinese Yen found in one closet!

More Gold machine guns and pistols -  more were never fired, just held for collection value.

They just burned it all down!

The money and valuables found in this one house alone, would be enough to pay for health insurance for every man, women and child in the USA for 12 years!

There are believed to be approximately 27 more of these houses in Mexico alone not to mention the ones in other countries who are enriching themselves in the illicit drug trade.  These people have so much money, they make the great Arab oil sheiks look like welfare recipients.  Their money can buy the best politicians, some cops, the best judges, or whatever they need they just throw down stacks of cash and it is theirs! 

This is why the drug problem is so difficult to fight.
