Heriberto Lazcano Lazcano, R.I.P.


                                 photos courtesy of El Universal


"El Lazca", Heriberto Lazcano Lazcano, the ruthless leader of Mexico's Los Zetas, has erected the final resting place that will house his remains in the city of Pachuca, Hidalgo.

The purpose of the empty mausoleum in the San Francisco cemetary is an open, but unspoken, secret among the residents of the colonia Tezontle, where Lazcano has also paid for the erection of a church, Nuestra Señora de los Lagos.

Although the exact location of Lazcano's birth in the state of Hidalgo is disputed, Tezontle is said to be his birthplace. Tezontle is one of the poorer, more forgotten neighborhoods of Pachuca.

Among the myths that surround Lazcano's life is that a reason for his desertion from the Army and entry into the original cadre of Los Zetas is that he was denied promotion past the rank of corporal, not for lack of merit but due to his humble origins.

Mausoleums are symbols of the excess that marks the narco lifestyle, at least for the higher tiers of drug traffickers with the resources to fund them. They are the final bookend to these men's lives.






Below are excerpts of a documentary that chronicles life in the universe of drug trafficker's burial grounds. "El Velador" (The Night Watchman)  is the work of the Mexican filmmaker Natalia Almada.

  1. Why can't the government demolish or seize the property? How can any one justify legitimate funds to this? Is there no financial reporting or revenue service in Mexico? What you steal, wheel and deal is yours because you have it? Get real. Sell dope, rape, murder and rob...then build mom and dad a palace and shopping malls and churches. What a joke. Illicit proceeds with no reporting and the freaking criminals are using mass homicide money to openly buy and taunt the government as they don't do squat. The corruption is just so widespread that the US military needs to go into Mexico and wipe out the cartels.

  7. Trust me Lazca is much smarter than Z40.....You think he doesnt know that 40 would betray him if he could? None of these guys compare to El Chapo o El Mayo but I admit El Lazca is very smart and he is not going to be taken down any time soon.

  13. Here will lie one of the best mexicans ever he and his company caused so much pain and suffering to mexico and fellow mexicans that we all should bring roses every year to his grave don't you think so guys remember that according to our religion we have to forgive others in order to be for forgiven so we can go to heaven when our time is due ...............there is no doubt in my mine that forgiving. Is way more difficult than climbing the everest mountain

  20. This is why Mexico is fucked! This shit is totally accepted by Mexican culture, people might say they don't like it, but nothing is being done. Imagine those people on those buses being killed and thrown in a fucking mass grave, and this fucking coward will be buried in a golden fucking coffin!! You can't blame any of this bullshit on USA, this one is yours Mexico, all fucking yours!!!

  21. What does this show about Lascano?? it shows that he likes to plan ahead.What a smart guy.Im pretty sure Lascano is in his home state of Hidalgo,where the Zetas have everything under control.Theres a reaaon why you dont hear about Hidalgo.

  24. @ Anon February 12, 2012 8:48 PM,I totally agree with you,the U.S of A should come to Mexico capture ALL the cartel leaders then extradite them to the worlds largest drug consuming nation (USA) & make deals with them like they have the habit of doing.Squeeze the $ out of them along with some info & give them a light sentence.Yeah,thats good 'ol American "Justice".Where the Big Bosses can snitch away & live comfortably protected by the U.S. Marshalls service enjoying the earnings they were allowed to keep.

  25. This also shows how spiritual Lazca is.He knows his time could come at any time,and he knows this is the price for enriching his family and giving them a better start in life.Call him what you may,but i believe there are many on here who shout their mouth off about how tough they are,but most of you would never have the balls to become a paid killer,enforcer,drug dealer,knowing that if you are caught you would be better putting a bullet in your brain.Don't forget for all you who say the big dogs sit back.Lazca was himself a sicario,Chapo led gunmen himself,so they all put work in,and rose to the top because of intelligence and aptitude.There always has to be a leader,or you have chaos.And the best leaders are recognized by their men.

    2. Better start in life?? His kids will always be the children of one of the guys ruining Mexico forever! No normal person in society will be friends with these kids once they find out who their dad is and where their money comes from, they will only hang with other drug dealer children scum. Also, I know a few Marines and Navy Seals who ARE paid killers and are just waiting for the green light on these guys...

  26. There is so much blood on his hands that to place the Crosses on his mausoleum makes a mockery of GOD & HIS WORD on how humans are to behave...

    RE: The blood money used to erect the church...if it is used for worship service, then all who participate are indirectly complicit in the drug trade, from the pastor or priest to the parishioners...

  27. The Mexican Govt should bomb that place DURING the funeral and wipe out everyone who supports him, that might include several top Zetas leaders.

    ReplyDelete
  28. The Mexican government really should consider burning the bodies of all Narco leaders and dumping their ashes into the sewer systems where they belong!

  33. I don't understand how Lazcano couldn't have made it past corporal if he was in the GAFE special forces. Corporal is a very low rank in the Mexican military. That doesn't make any sense.

  34. "The title is very misleading. I nearly got a heart attack of excitement."

    I agree, the author should be ashamed of using this title....many of us follow the drug war and are well aware of who is who (on a daily basis).

  35. Bullshit title....like previously mentioned.

  36. Mexico should kidnap EVERY one of Lazcanos relatives and make him turn himself in or else.....

  37. "I don't understand how Lazcano couldn't have made it past corporal if he was in the GAFE special forces. Corporal is a very low rank in the Mexican military. That doesn't make any sense."

    It is called recruiting, and it happens in the U.S. all the time. If somebody fits the mold (academically / physically, etc.)rank is usually discarded.

  39. & February 13, 2012 5:49 PM

    Lazcano feeling guilty for his sins? you kiddin me??? this man don't care about no one but himself! he is a true psychopath I mean you only have to look at his photo to see he is crazy and as cold as ice. He would kill you, me our families and everyone else associated with us and think nothing of it.

    As long as he makes money and lives like a king he don't give a shit who has to suffer and die until its his turn of course and I am sure CDG or the Sinaloa Cartel would enjoy that opportunity.

    1. What's dumb is to think either one country or the other is to blame. Have you considered both are incredibly guilty and in their own ways.

      This is not about the greed of nations but greed of the men in those nations. To me it seems so simple once you take away the hate.

      Try it, you might like it? It's better for your health to reduce stress. Don't you know. :-)

    What? Your comment has to be the most fucking ridiculous comment on here...your talking about beggars in the US? Messico is famous for that shit...lil kids trying to sell you chicklets at the border. In case you didn't know...let me turn the light on for you...more than 50% of the Mexican population lives in poverty...dirt as poor, dumb fuck! Use your brain...think! That would be the reason why Mexicans are dying to enter into the US..and it's not the other way around!

    ReplyDelete

    1. Also 50% of americans live in poverty. Come south to the border, more than half of beggars are americans not Mexicans. Millions of americans live in Mexico, because the retirement check they get is not enough to live in the USA, so they receive their social security and va checks in Mexico. All because the USA ecoomy is going to hell thanks to the best ever American presidents, Bush and Obama, and I am sure you vote for both, because you love them! Keep on BEGGING Obama for more money!

  48. @2/13 11:23PM,
    Let's examine your logic (Mexican). The US lets guns leave the US to enter into Mexico (your compliant). What happen on the Mexican side? How come the Mexican authorities failed to stop the flow? Answer: border security on the Mexican side is non-existent! Okay...the guns make it there and into the hands of Mexicans, who in turn use them to kill other Mexicans, all in the name of the drug trade that equates to Money! BTW, it was the people on the US side that exposed operation F&F..the Mexicans as usual were oblivious to what was going on. Also, you are truly ignorant, if your think the DTO only get their weaponary from the US but hey excuses are easier to swallow...right, and we all know your good at swallowing..right "Mr. Deepthroat!"

  53. Jesus came to save sinners, not to destroy them. El Lazca is a great sinner but we are all sinners too. Not as great as El Lazca, El Chapo etc. but still sinners. So everyone has a chance to repent his sins and mend his ways, even a minute before he depart this life for eternal life in Heaven or in Hell.

    Now, there is a devotion that was very popular in the past but is now almost forgotten. It has saved many hardened and great sinners and many of them at the last moment of their life. It is very easy and unfailing because it is Jesus Christ and His Immaculate Mother Mary Who revealed it to St. Mathilde for salvation of souls: the three Hail Marys devotion, prayed every day.

    If you forget to pray one day start the string anew. No matter how often you forget start the string anew. Whoever perseveres till death in this devotion shall be saved in the way God deems fit even if it be at the last moment of his life.

    The three Hail Marys devotion is literally for everyone, atheists and agnostics included.

  54. Why do people come on here and complain about cartels, white u.s. citizens especially like to do that. HUMANS ARE NEVER SATISFIED. If this wasnt happening people would be crying about something else, I love this i hope it never stops and none of your crying will stop it drugs rule the world legal or not. Not to sound ignorant but really its true

  56. Important notice to February 15, 2012 4:26 PM comment: no intention, no introduction, no invocation, no additional prayer, no enthusiasm, absolutely nothing else besides saying normal three Hail Marys every day is needed for the three Hail Marys devotion and for eternal salvation of anyone.
