DOJ IG Audit: Drug Enforcement Administration's Use of Intelligence Analysts

The Drug Enforcement Administration’s Use of Intelligence Analysts, Audit Report 08-23, May 2008 (96 pages, PDF)

  • “The gathering and use of intelligence is an important element in the Drug Enforcement Administration’s (DEA) efforts to identify and disrupt illegal drug trafficking. Accurate and up-to-date intelligence is needed to assess the operations and vulnerabilities of criminal drug networks, to systematically interdict illegal contraband, and to evaluate the impact of illegal drug activities. Intelligence is also needed to identify new methods of illegal drug trafficking and to establish long-range enforcement strategies. DEA management also uses intelligence for operational decision-making, resource deployment, and policy planning. The DEA also shares information and expertise with other members of the intelligence community, as well as other federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies, to help identify and
    disrupt illegal drug trafficking.”
