1. The real Slim shady
Mexico is often referred to as the home to many drug lords. And as the “ruler” of Mexico, who runs the business across the nation, you would think Carlos Slim Helu has at least made contact with one of them.
Allegations were made, but no one has really done anything about it. About two years ago, a book written by Diego Enrique Osorno revealed his connection to the drug cartels.
WikiLeaks revealed emails dated April 2011 between Anya Alfano and Fred Burton, the head of a global intelligence agency, Strategic Forecasting, Inc. or also known as Stratfor. Burton stated that he asked DEA Special Agent William F. Dionne about Carlos Slim’s link to the narcos. And the DEA agent confirmed it.
