George Morales was a major Colombian cocaine trafficker who operated during the early 1980s. In early 1984, despite having just been indicted by a federal grand jury on conspiracy and cocaine trafficking charges, Morales was approached by [[Central Intelligence Agency]]-linked Contra officials seeking financial and logistical assistance for [[Eden Pastora|Eden Pastora's]] [[ARDE]] Contra army.[^1]
