SEMINAR Reviews

This class was spectacular. Jay’s knowledge of the inner workings of drug trade organizations and cartels are like no other. You don’t get many opportunities to learn from somebody who lived through being a big-time player in the drug game, so if this class comes around I’d highly encourage you to take it. The class is more structured around Jay’s story and you’ll learn a significant amount of things along the way as he teaches, so this isn’t a class that will “teach” you interdiction however it will expand your knowledge greatly. Jay’s willingness to answer any question and have an open dialogue are also extremely valuable, I don’t think you’ll find a class like this anywhere else around the country.

 Great course, great insight to large scale DTO operations. Students will rarely have the type of insight offered by this instructor.

"This was one of the best narcotic related classes I have ever been to. Listening to Margarito tell his story was eye opening and an overall great experience. I would definitely like to attend future training."

"This class was very informational, but needs to be extended due to not enough time in the day."

"Jay was professional and informative throughout the course. I wish he had more time to pick his brain and have interactive dialogue. Great job, CPD for making this happen!"— Alex, 03/13/2025

“Hey man, I just wanted to reach out and let you know Margarito put on a damn good class in Fort Worth. I heard people talking and realized. You only had two interdiction guys in the class and we both enjoyed it. My training coordinator attended the class and enjoyed it so much he is going to reach out to you about hosting it here. I would definitely attend this class again, he is full of so much information. Sorry to reach out with a text but I am away from my computer and just wanted you to know that is one hell of a class man.”
