A special report by DF reporter Ioan Grillo...about the brutal Los Zetas narco gang...and their rapid expansion...in Mexico and Central America.
These narcos are successful and a bigger challenge because they act more like 'urban guerrillas' than other mafiosos.
With an estimated 10,000 members...the Zetas have unleashed a new and violent model of organized crime on Mexico and Central America.
