You're about to enter a war zone. It's not Iraq, it's not Afghanistan. It's in Mexico. It's a drug war, and you've never seen anything like it. In 2008, quiet suburbs are battle grounds. Tourist towns are no-go areas, as the drug traffickers fight for control of a $70 billion industry. And that year alone, they've killed more than 3,500 people. But, as in the movies, a new law man has just ridden into town. He's a real straight shooter, determined to give the drug barons a run for their money, if he can survive. Michael Usher spent a few hair-raising days with a cop they called Mexico's Rambo.
