WASHINGTON — As a high- ranking U.S. anti-drug official, Richard Padilla Cramer held front-line posts in the war on Mexico’s murderous cartels. He led an office of agents in Arizona and was the attache for Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Guadalajara, Mexico. While in Mexico, however, Cramer also served as a secret ally of drug lords, according to federal investigators. Cramer allegedly advised traffickers on law enforcement tactics and pulled secret files to help them identify turncoats. Drug Enforcement Administration agents arrested Cramer, 56, at his home in Arizona on Sept. 4.
