Chinese organized crime with suspected ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has taken over an estimated 75 percent of the marijuana black market in the United States, a federal narcotics expert said.
Rob Roggeveen, national deputy coordinator of the Marijuana Impact Group within the High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas (HIDTA) program, said that the black-market marijuana trade has grown exponentially into an estimated $300 billion-a-year industry.
