A multimillion-dollar horse breeding operation run from an Oklahoma ranch was actually a front by a notorious Mexican cartel to launder millions of dollars in drug money, prosecutors have alleged.

José Treviño Morales, the brother of the suspected leader of the Zetas cartel, is charged with money laundering conspiracy. Morales’ lawyer called his client a “legitimate horseman” who is being targeted due to his brother’s alleged crimes.
