Documents: 'King of Heroin' caught on wiretaps - San Jose Mercury News: "Mexico's 'King of Heroin' was caught on wiretap conversations talking to his coconspirators about drug transactions involving hundreds of thousands of dollars.
In the recordings, Jose Antonio Medina Arreguin, 36, also discusses storing drugs at secret locations until they can be distributed, according to court documents obtained by the Ventura County Star.
The Mexican national entered a not guilty plea late last month to a charge of conspiracy to transport heroin for sale and a special allegation that the drugs exceeded 40 kilos, or 88 pounds.
He will be back in Ventura County Superior Court for a hearing on Dec. 9.
Prosecutors allege he was the leader of an elaborate, multimillion-dollar smuggling operation that once moved an estimated 440 pounds of heroin a month into Oxnard, Downey, Los Angeles, Long Beach and San Jose. The Mexican media dubbed him the 'King of Heroin.'"
