Photos of Alleged Zetas Dismembered Along a Chapel


I am posting some photographs of some alleged Zetas that were abducted (levantados) in Camargo and Miguel Aleman. These are presumed Zetas as most have the letter "Z" carved on thir bodies. Some say this is the work of the Gulf cartel, but we have not confirmed it.

They were dismembered and decapitated. I must warn you, these images are strong and discretion is definitely advised. I will post the most violent images on the subsequent page. If you get offended while viewing images depicting extreme violence, please do not view.

I post these images to give the people an idea of the extent of brutality these cartels go through when they want to send their message. Many times we get complacent and dismiss the extent of the reality that is taking place, but the horror is real. This is the kind of nightmare the people in Mexico live with on a routine basis.

WARNING! Graphic images depicting extreme violence.

  1. Oh...my...gosh...I am speechless. This violence has gotten out of control! I in no way condone these actions, but I just feel terrible for these dead men's families! These men were someone's son, brother, father, husband, or all of the above! Their families are the true victims! The sad part is, this doesn't seem to be ending any time soon.

    The Mexican government has yet to execute an effective tactic against all this brutality. All they've done is worsen the situation. What are they doing to help the families of missing loved ones (journalists, the missing migrants, and other missing persons who are innocent in respect to all of this chaos)!?! What about the missing Eduardos? What about the missing man from Miguel Aleman (Alberto Ramirez Barcenas)? What about the family who was on their way to the beach in Matamoros and were shot at by military (the military killed the couple's two boys!) What corrective action is being taken? Nothing is being done to help the innocents in need. The Mexican government is a disappointment.

    Again, I do not condone any sort of violence, but I wonder if the general public would prefer to have things the way they were before Mr. Genius-Mexican-President decided to declare war on a set of individuals (cartels) who were extremely more prepared for battle than the government itself. Before President Calderon decided to go to war, yes violence (caused by the cartels) was present in violence-prone cities (where it was expected - like Ciudad Juarez), but it was probably kept at a minimum and wasn't so wide-spread as it is today. For most, life was probably safer and of better quality before Calderon. May be I'm wrong, but I think that some how, Calderon was the catalyst of the events that have taken course since his war declaration. May be some cartels felt the pressure and that caused alliances to break...which takes us to where we are today - in the middel of absolute chaos!

  2. I don't know.. I think perhaps the letter Z in their bodies is being misread? In the glass door it says, To whoever protects las golfas. Las golas is what the Zetas call the CDG.. So why would it say that in the glass door? Perhaps they intended to leave it as a branding, as the movie character Zorro would leave the Z trademark wherever he acted.

  3. Rise, I believe you're right, that is how I interpreted it.

    ReplyDelete
  4. I agree I think this was done by the Zetas to members of the Gulf Cartel

    ReplyDelete
  5. I have to agree with RiseMakaveli, it looks as if the Z is more of a trademark. It's awful to think that the country of my ancestors has turned into a country overrun by criminals. Who can you trust anymore? What makes me sadder is the fact that I don't want to visit anymore for fear of being caught in the cross fire. Sounds worse that the south side of Chicago!

  6. That is true, I tried doing some research on this, anyone know when this happened and if anyone has a link or any info of th eincident.

    Yea, rise is right. Those Zeta punks have left the Z carved into bodies of their victims before, like in Michoacan. And the message says, Para los k cuidan los golfas, which means, To those who protect Gulf members. Golfas is what the zetas use as a derogatory name for CDG. So this looks like some people that might have worked for CDG or something like, maybe they were police on CDG payroll. But those little zeta bitches have something coming for them. CDG is on their tail and soon zetas will be no more.

    ReplyDelete
  9. In the window it says "Para Los Que cuidan a los Golfos" which means "To those who protect the Golfos (CDG)". Those people are definitely Zetas, Z being carved in their body by the CDG. I have seen it elsewhere done. Maybe those people were once Zetas and switched group...

    ReplyDelete
  10. Maybe the mexican Zorro is responsible.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Well! it seems like Mexico needs a hero called kick-ass. lol! anyone up for the challenge.
    It really doesn't matter what the CDG or the Zetas do. they can fight all they want at the end they will all lose. No specifics but I have a feeling something bigger is coming!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Yes, I understand what some of you are saying. The person who sent the pictures said that the victims were "alleged" Zetas, so I would like to see if there is a story of this somewhere, but just so you all know, the media on these parts of Mexico don't report everything that happens, that is why we continue to do so here.

    If anyone finds something on this, give me a shout!

    ReplyDelete
  13. ok, can we see the most violent photos please? oh wait, were you talking about those above?

    * Too bad we're getting used to these gruesome images...

  14. sooner or later they will all kill each other and it will be over for a while. they made the decision to do what they are doing and they paid for that decision. besides as long as there is a demand for drugs on this side there will be this sort of violence. we need to stop the demand.

  15. Of course, the Mexican Zorro (Mr. Firestarter)did it! And the C.I.A. too!
    with knifes, guns, r-15s and a lot of guns made in the U.S.A!

  16. There is no Mexican Governnment.

  17. The guns being used by mex to kill mex didn't come from the US, most are from Venezuela. That is the dictatorship that has the most to gain by seeing Mexico in Chaos.

  18. all them are Zetas, it will sound awful but they get what they deserve it, they do things even worse than the pictures you have seen it with innocent people, women and children
    Their bussines is not just the drugs, actually drug traffic it´s their third or fourth place of his bussines, before drugs are kidnappin, sell security ---from who? from themselves of course, and bussines right´s sales-- what means these? if i have a store (whatever it is) i have to pay them to let me work, even if im not sell drugs or anything illegal just if my bussines is goin well they can came and charge me some kind of "quote" ---it´s bullshit what they say that they dont mess with innocent people.
    they also control the alcohol sales, all kind of clubs, if you made a party (like a sweet 16 or a wedding) and you dont ask for his permission it´s very, very probably they came and cancel your reunion probably with violence and with a price for your "fine" and give you the traditional "tableada" --they hit your butt, back and legs with a piece of huge wood stick, it´s pretty regular that some of your legs broke during these...
    they steal, rape, kidnap, and kill with forms that the "kaibiles" look like amateurs

  19. This is supply side capitalism in its purest and most brutal form. The U.S. has created the demand for the product(s). The U.S. consumers pay their money and are supplied.

    To the narcotrafficantes, what you see in these photographs is nothing more than "collateral baggage." Or, in other words, the cost of doing business.

    With the narco-industry in Mexico at or exceeding its gross exports ($39B in 1999 - and only God knows what it is in 2010) you are playing with some heavy hitters.

    The Catholic Church was tied up in this as "middle men." The narcotrafficantes would make very sizable donations which the church gladly accepted - no questions asked! - and kept these activities under the table.

    When these donations were finally exposed by the Mexican press, Mexico's Holy Roman Church justified the transactions by saying, in effect. "Once the tainted money enters comes through the doors of the sanctuary, God has cleansed it of all sin and it is now whole and pure."

    Tell that to the poor bastards that have been tortured and executed protecting the public - and, yes, - the Holy Roman Church.

  20. If those are in fact Zetas, I am glad to see their rotting corpses. They are the scum of the earth and ALL deserve to die.

    I have lived in this area my entire life, things were never this bad till those low life scum sucking criminals came into the picture. I say let the Gulf Cartel take the all out...how ever they see fit. If it means beheading, shooting, or killing off their families to bring them out of hiding...do it! The sooner they are dead the sooner we can have some sort of civility across the border.

  21. You guys break my heart. Thinking like that is what has left us with this broken shell we call earth. That bullshit they sell that venom kills venom is bullshit, humanity beats all evil. How can you say kill their families as necessary, you're a piece of shit just like them. People need to learn that this is not a video game.. This is not a movie.. This are peoples lifes.. Identities.. Not just blank moving blocks of meat. I know they have done a lot of evil, and should be punished, but that is not the right way of doing things. I don't know what to say.. All this bullshit just depresses me because instead of you understanding what all this is about, you just feed your hate. It's easy to wish death on somebody when you're not the one who has to pull the trigger. People day dream and swear if they had a chance to shoot one of this guys they would in a heartbeat. That's the problem with our society, just like Calderon. He sits on his throne not giving a fuck about what his decisions are causing because he doesn't have to see the aftermath. All he does is read statistics in a piece of paper. He doesn't have to come down and clean the guts of all the people murdered.. Innocent or not. There is always a chance people can change, and don't generalize please. I know people in both wings, CDG and Zetas and not everyone who enters into that lifestyle is an animal. Some of them are just trying to make a living. You think every person who is involved in organized crime is a murderer? This is the way things got because of their management, and I'm not talking about religion. The Catholic church is one of the biggest organizations of corruption and prejudice out there. Hate only brings more hate, at the end of the day your compassion is what defines you as a human being, that is what sets you apart from everyone else. I do believe in the death sentence, and some people are just evil, but people are being murdered left and right because of suspicion. Innocent people are going out to work to feed their families and never coming home. You think that's fair? Think about what you're really saying before you open your mouth.

  22. what is the answer? Look back on history is what i do.
    Thomas Paine
    BACK THE CRISIS INDEX NEXT

    The Crisis by Thomas Paine
    December 23, 1776
    THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated."

    go read it all . what i would like to say is; what would you do with these men that have fried their brains on quantities of narcotics and have used every vile means of killing fellow human beings let them teach at an elementary school, maybe your children but not mine. It goes without saying that in any country that has the rule of law you cannot conduct vigilante justice. Let the law enforcement and the military deal with them but if they should fail i hope you are prepared for anarchy. anyone who is following the cartel wars already knows that the cartels are hundreds of thousands strong with the equipment and training to back up what they say. My suggestion is turn in every drug dealer and user anonymously

  23. to RiseMakaveli, take your bleeding heart and go dance around with the rest of the left wing pushovers. This is WAR, these Zetas are lawless scum, they do not care if innocent people are killed. They just want to make a buck, they would soon as rather kill you if you are in the way.

    The way I look at it is very simple, eliminate the threat and that part of the equation is gone. What ost people do not seem to realize is these Zetas are predators...they kill without remorse. What about the Zeta that claimed to make soup out of his human victims? What about the hundreds of people killed in Nuevo Laredo over the last few months...what about the police official that really are trying to make a difference? They were all excuted by Zeta for trying to do their jobs...and you feel for their lives, you my friend are the piece of shit.

    You mentioned about day dreaming about shooting the, I can and will tell you right now, I would have NO problem shooting them. If it meant keeping the people of Mexico safe and prevented this war fro coming over here on a full scale, you are damn right I will kill them. I will kill the to protect my family, friends and even your pathetic ass. So the next time you are in Mexic enjoying a meal and a shoot out starts, I praty that you or a loved one are not struck my a stray Zeta bullet...these criminals do not deserve jail,they deserve the express lane to the death penalty...be it judicially or not.

  24. "To whoever protects las golfas"

    Could it be that its the CDG who got the zetas and maybe making a offering to La Santa Muerte like the zetas do or vis versa or something along those lines ?

  25. uhhh i really hope this isn't an "offering." If it is, this would only cause violence to escalate even more...on so many levels!

  29. Hahaha, the cartels are at war against each other, they are killing each other. Sometimes bystanders or military get in the way, but they are killing each other.

    Perhaps you need to educate yourself on what is going on over there, I suggest starting with "History" on top!

    ReplyDelete
  30. It's not about killing them, it's about the torture and mutilation. Nobody deserves to be tortured and mutilated, not the victims and not them. There are ways to deal with everything, and I don't agree with what they're doing. On the left wing pushovers, haha you have no idea who I am or what I've been through, you think you're going to lecture me about violence and doing what's right? It's because of all the bullshit I've been through that I've learned to respect another persons life. More than 1/3 of you tough guys out there have no idea what it is to hold a gun to somebodies head and have him beg you for his life. You ever seen a person die? It's easy to stand on the sidelines and comment. It's easy to wish death on somebody and claim you'll kill them to protect your family, of course you'd do it, I would to. I'd kill to protect anybody who I know to be a good person or innocent for that matter, but the way this people work is not the same. They'll pick you up and claim you're responsible for so and so, and a lot of this guys got killed 1-2 weeks into getting involved. I know it's their fault for being involved, and there are a lot of people out there who just enjoy hurting people. To them I hold no compassion, but you guys just wish death on a label. Zetas.. There needs to be some sort of balance, history is written by the victors, that is why we we see what we see. You know the side of the story that they tell you.

  34. Who is the real winner of this ongoing war? As far outsiders coming in and taking over what does C.D.G. think once they push the Zetas out.. Those treacherous dogs from La FAM. and the Sinaloenses are going pack up and leave DOUBT that. These miserable bastards are going stick in the C.D.G asses. As far as the people thanking the C.D.G. for getting rid of the Zetas. Wait until the other shoe drops.You think the streets are red with blood now. Be Fore Warned!!

  35. It is not like that in ALL border towns, we forget that generalizing is bad. My family and I travel to Acuna Mexico once a month,most recently we visited for the running of the bulls all we saw was plenty of local and american people in the streets. Many have told us not to go across. However from our experiences nothing bad as far as shootings has happenened in this border city. On our way to Acuna we always stop in Del Rio which is also a nice small town. Hopefully these cities remain the same.

  37. the fact that there is a demand for drugs plays a huge part in this. if there was no demand for drugs, perhaps this would be far less frequent as there would be alot less to fight over.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Legalize all drugs, take the profit out of the drug trade altogether, let those who are inclined to become users use, those who are disinclined will not be affected by legalization. No public entitlements for those whose health and lives fail due to drug abuse. This approach will take care of a lot of this problem.

    I cannot believe the hatred of this country (USA) so much and our very foundation. This is not the result of capitalism and whoever said that is a Marxist idiot.
    Our system is as close to perfect as you can get AS long AS the rule of Law is followed. No one is responsible for anothers actions be it doing drugs or choosing a life that they traffic drugs for greed. Morality is what is lost.

Capitalism is NOT our salvation nor is it anywhere near perfect. Talk about ignorance! The Rule of Law is a myth. Western civilization today is simply a remnant of the barbaric roman empire. They fancied themselves civilized . . . Yeah, right! The rule of law is the majority imposing its will upon all and worse yet it is then hijacked by corrupt beings who use it to further their own fiendish agendas

  60. It is WRONG to call what is going on in Mexico 'a Drug War'. Drugs are but a means to an end. FYI, the Zetas make 1/3 of their profits off shaking down businesses and people (racketeering).

It is illegal for your average mexican citizen to own a firearm maybe that needs to be changed. I know where i live u knock on the door in the middle of the night to do harm and these rednecks will shoot u with their various firearms and they all have them
