The Cowboy mafia was the nickname for a group of marijuana smugglers who operated in the United States during the 1970s.[1][2] At the time they were reportedly the most prolific drug smugglers in Texas. The nickname was given to the group by the Dallas media, as the capture and trial of the group created significant media coverage throughout Texas.
During 1977 and 1978 the group imported over 106 tons of marijuana.[3] Using the shrimp boats Agnes Pauline, Monkey, Jubilee, and Bayou Blues, the group made six trips from Colombia to Texas. On each of the 6 shrimp boats involved in the travel of marijuana, there was anywhere between 35,000 to 40,000 pounds of marijuana that was then transported to ranches owned by Rex Cauble dispersed throughout the state.[4] The group was arrested in 1978 after the federal government seized the Agnes Pauline when they were unloading their cargo in Port Arthur, Texas.
