Transnational Organized Crime: Principal Threats and U.S. Responses is a CRS Report for Congress, dated March 20, 2006, written by John R. Wagley, Analyst in Foreign Affairs, Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division.
Excerpt:
"Many experts believe a more coordinated law enforcement and intelligence approach would better combat both international crime and terrorism. They point to better coordination in areas such as money laundering, drug trafficking, and human smuggling. According to some experts, criminals could be effective witnesses or informants against terrorists. Terrorists may avoid organized criminal organizations, many experts believe, if association with them increases their risk of capture. Terrorists may instead commit petty crime or operate smaller, less sophisticated crime rings."
