Mexico drug cartel offers to disband

Mexico drug cartel offers to disband: "One of Mexico's most brutal drug cartels, a leader in trafficking synthetic narcotics into the United States, has offered to disband if the government guarantees security for citizens in the western state of Michoacan.
The Michoacan Family, one of Mexico's seven largest drug gangs and known here simply as La Familia, said in a letter sent on Wednesday to local media that it was ready to dissolve itself if security was enforced and citizens of the state are protected."
