The suspected cartel responsible, based in Sinaloa Mexico under Kingpin Joaquin 'El Champ' Guzman, is believed to handle 65 percent of all illegal drugs smuggled into the United States.
The drugs were found smuggled from Mexico into Arizona by means of car, plane, foot, as well as through tunnels.
The Mexican drug cartel is described by the official as a 'sophisticated network' and also one of the largest operations in the southwestern United States today.
Just last year the Sinaloa cartel under 'El Champ,' was feared by U.S. intelligence as winning the Mexican drug war.
