### Role in the Blandón Network
### Role in the Blandón Network
Moreno was introduced to Blandón by Norwin Meneses and supplied Blandón with "so many" thousands of kilos of cocaine in 1984 and 1985 that Blandón could not put an exact number on them. Blandón worked with Moreno until 1987. [[Ronald Lister]] told police in 1996 that Moreno was "affiliated with [the] FDN," and Blandón strongly suggested the same during interviews with the CIA Inspector General. Moreno arranged "at least one 1-ton delivery that was delivered by air via Oklahoma," Blandón told the CIA. Blandón said "he and his associates thought the plane might be connected with the CIA because someone had placed a small FDN sticker somewhere on the airplane."[^1]

A DEA informant described Moreno as a cocaine supplier and money launderer for both Meneses's [[San Francisco]]-based branch and Blandón's [[Los Angeles]] network. Moreno, his wife Aura, and his family hauled millions in drug profits to [[Miami]] hidden in a motor home. Moreno was also living in Ronald Lister's former Mission Viejo residence when the [[LASD Major Violators]] raided it in October 1986. In Lister's handwritten notes, next to the name "Aparicio," he had written "FDN coordinator."[^1]
