The honorable Robert Brewer, Southern District of California United States Attorney, speaks on the Coast Guard Cutter Bertholf’s crew during a drug offload of more than 18,000 pounds of cocaine in San Diego, Dec. 18, 2019. The $312 million-worth of seized cocaine was the result of seven separate suspected drug smuggling vessel interdictions and disruptions by Bertholf and four other Coast Guard cutter crews who patrolled international waters of the Eastern Pacific Ocean off the coasts of Mexico, Central and South America between October and November.
