I read recently of smugglers busted with $18 million worth of meth hidden in a vegetable shipment. It was around 16 tons. For the smugglers, Aside from of going to prison, are the smugglers indebted to the cartel or do the cartels see it as a cost of doing business?

Depends, if you get caught, that might be no big deal, cost of doing business. But if you suspect you are about to be caught and then dump the drugs to protect yourself, that’s not cool and will earn you a bullet in the head.
