OK starting off with, my claim was that there were some law enforcement on payroll already.

How many? is debatable. Overall corruption estimate is from the LEAP site. They estimate that about 50% fall to the temptation at least once. There is a video on the home page and I believe they talk about corruption in that video.

It's not a print statement, yet it may answer what you are asking.

It could be argued that these on direct payroll of the Mexican cartels are rare. There are probably a larger number that have "looked the other way" as a drug shipment went by. Some of those shipments would have been from the cartels.

I believe this to be a fair statement.

There are some corrupt police officers within the US. Some of these have received drug money on the side. Some of this money is from Drug Cartels from Mexico. How many of these exist is debatable.

Would you agree? Can we leave it at that please?

The other part was my claim that there is mexican cartel representation in every major US city.

One of the cartel leaders says thank you to US lawmakers for keeping drugs illegal:

CNN has been showing maps of identified US cities are being supplied, on a wholesale basis, by these cartels.
