1. (SBU/NF) Reference is made to a classified cable, written under 
ZA-09-0007/YAZ1K; MARTINETTI, Julio et al/Operation Heart of Stone 
on October 27, 2009 by Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) 
Special Agent (SA) Russell Baer titled: OPERATIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF 
BANCO AMAMBAY MONEY LAUNDERING INVESTIGATION AND CASE COORDINATION 
WITH ATF BRISTOL, VA.  This referenced cable explains the recent 
relationship between DEA and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and 
Firearms (ATF) and the planned integration of Operation Heart of 
Stone with the ATF, Bristol VA office's investigation into illicit 
tobacco sales from Paraguay to the United States. 
 
 
 
 
 
2. (SBU/NF) OPERATION HEART OF STONE is a coordinated, 
transnational investigation focused on the disruption and 
dismantlement of a significant drug trafficking and money 
laundering enterprise operating within the Tri Border Area (TBA) of 
Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil, and elsewhere throughout the 
world. This investigation has established links between and among 
drug trafficking, money laundering and other criminal organizations 
and, as such, was approved as a designated Consolidated Priority 
Organizational Target (CPOT) investigation during April 2009. This 
investigation, targeting specific TBA financial institutions, their 
executives, and related money laundering facilitators is being 
worked jointly by the Asuncion CO, the Buenos Aires Country Office 
(BACO), the New York FD Organized Crime Drug Enforcement 
Strike-Force/ Financial Investigations Team (NYOCDESF/FIT), HQ/FO 
(OPERATION HIGHWIRE-SEO 592), Immigration and Customs Enforcement, 
the Internal Revenue Service and SOD/CNTOC, and is being supported 
by the United States Attorneys Office for the Eastern District of 
New York, the DOJ Asset Forfeiture Money Laundering Section, the 
Federal Reserve Bank, and the United States Treasury Office of 
Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). 
 
 
 
3. (C) The investigative team has implemented strategies and 
operations aimed at attacking the financial infrastructure of drug 
trafficking supply networks (DTO's) and other criminal enterprises 
operating within the TBA. Using a strategic approach to target the 
international command and control centers of these criminal 
organizations based in the TBA, agents have successfully focused 
investigative activity in an effort to develop this investigation 
with an aim toward a DEA UC introduction to CPOT designee Horacio 
CARTES. Through the utilization of a DEA BACO cooperating source 
and other DEA undercover personnel, agents have infiltrated CARTES' 
money laundering enterprise, an organization believed to launder 
large quantities of United States currency generated through 
illegal means, including through the sale of narcotics, from the 
TBA to the United States. 
 
 
 
4. (SBU/NF) This cable will summarize a recent effort to develop 
this investigation as it relates to CPOT designee CARTES and 
members of his inner circle. The Southern Cone Region (Asuncion and 
Buenos Aires Country Offices) will continue to work jointly with 
all other interested offices to aggressively develop this 
investigation. 
 
 
 
5. (C) From December 6, 2009 to December 9, 2009, ATF Bristol, VA 
hosted an information exchange/coordination meeting at the 
Rainforest Resort, Panama City, Panama in an attempt to share 
information between the above listed agencies and businesses and 
coordinate a future plan of attack amongst all members involved. 
 
 
 
6. (C) The following individuals were present:  Tom Lesnak (ATF 
Bristol VA), Bruce Lambert, RAC (ATF Bristol VA), Dan Whittemore 
(ATF Bristol, VA), Joe Fox (ATF HQ), Eric Flagg (ATF Winchester 
VA), Brian Damiani (ATF Winchester VA), Mike Schneider, RAC (ATF 
Winchester VA), Darnell Blake (DEA Asuncion), Charles Banks, GS 
(DEA Asuncion), Jarrod Sumner (DEA Buenos Aires), Dirk Lamagno, ARD 
(DEA Lima), Michael O'Shea (DEA NY), Don Im, GS (DEA NY), Orville 
Greene (DEA NY), Robert Capers (USAO, EDNY), Andrea Goldbarg (USAO, 
EDNY), Monica Morales (Treasury-OFAC NY), Ewan Duncan (British 
American Tobacco), Terry Hobbs (British American Tobacco), Richard 
Pandohie (British American Tobacco), Russell See (RAI-Reynolds), 
Derek Ogden (Imperial Tobacco), Dave Zimmerman (Altria-Formerly 
Phillip Morris USA), Mike Grogan (Altria-Formerly Phillip Morris 
USA.) 
 
 
 
7. (C) During the meetings, three approaches were decided upon. 
First, agents involved in the investigation are going to talk to 
William Cloherty, a Washington area lobbyist who is a director of 
Tobaccos USA, INC.  It is believed that Cloherty will have a 
historical perspective of tobacco operations between Paraguay and 
the United States and, more directly, information regarding tobacco 
production and sales and the movement of money obtained from the 
businesses of CARTES.  Second, it has been decided to introduce a 
second undercover (UC) agent to CARTES and/or his lieutenants, 
Osvaldo Gane SALUM and Juan Carlos Lopez Moriera in Paraguay.  In 
order to accomplish this task, UC documents need to be obtained. 
This will be accomplished over the next few weeks by members 
involved in the investigation.  Third, many basic investigative 
techniques such as interviews, debriefings, records checks and 
possible UC meets will be used in an attempt to successfully 
disrupt and dismantle the CARTES DTO. 
 
 
 
8. (SBU/NF) The Southern Cone Region would like to extend its 
appreciation to ATF Bristol, Virginia for providing the opportunity 
and venue to conduct these meetings. 
 
 
 
9. (U) Pursuant to section 6242.11 of the DEA agent's manual, this 
teletype is in lieu of a DEA-6, report of investigation. 
 
 
 
10. (SBU/NF) Inquiries may be directed to Buenos Aires Country 
AttachC) John Cohen or SA Jarrod Sumner at (301) 985-9361.
