Chapo and La Barbie Supposedly Initiated a 1000 Inmate Hunger Strike

Borderland Beat Chivis Martinez
Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, arrested in February, is in solitary confinement at Altiplano Maximum Security Prison. Édgar Valdez Villarreal, aka "La Barbie" is in the same prison. The two at one time worked together, but later became enemies when La Barbie jumped ship to Beltran-Leyva. But their joint interest in the conditions of their confinement apparently trump old feuds, as the two have engineered a hunger among 1,000 of the prison's inmates, to protest the violation of their human rights. It began Wednesday, and will continue indefinitely.

Among the complaints:
 inadequate medical attention and not providing medication rotten food (20 inmates got sick last week from eating spoiled chicken.)  
not regularly laundering their prison uniforms no underwear                                           no access to commissary to buy toiletries withholding of family visits and phone calls
 In May, at another Mexican maximum security prison, 450 inmates got food poisoning from rotten or contaminated food served during family visits. (State prisons in the U.S. also have this problem.)

The two are not housed near each other or allowed to communicate with each other, and both are  in solitary confinement, yet they were still able to  develop their planned hunger strike and implement it?

This isn't La Barbie's first hunger strike at Altiplano. Nor are they the first to complain about Altiplano. One of the major druglords of the 70's and 80's, Miguel Angel Felix Gallardo, has been at Altiplano for over 20 years. His family wrote a letter with similar complaints that was published in 2011.
 They claim he is being held in "inhuman" circumstances in a special lockdown section amid "unhealthy conditions, humidity, a lack of ventilation, bad odors and darkness."
Note: Whereas some of the prisons have horrific conditions,  Altiplano No1 has a good reputation.  It is the only true supermax prison and the only one without an escape.  I wrote an article of the Altiplano Prison No 1. (follow the hyperlink to view)

Capos, including Chapo while at the Jalisco prison he escaped from, are used to being able to pay for luxuries such as private stocked bars, inside apartment like cells, and the company of women at whim.  I am not sure if this article, published by Proceso, is true, especially since all cells are solitary, but I do recall La Barbies 2011 hunger strike.  His complaints were many, he was kept in solitary confinement, rarely allowed out, food was delivered to the cell, not allowed much exercise, no contact with others, visits restricted.

Sounds like prison.

He resumed eating.....

    Texas Gov. Rick Perry plans to announce he will activate the Texas National Guard at a news conference Monday in Austin, said state Sen. Juan “Chuy” Hinojosa, D-McAllen.
    Hinojosa did not have details of the effort, but an internal memo from another state official’s office said the governor planned to call about 1,000 Texas National Guard troops to the Rio Grande Valley — at a cost of about $12 million per month.

  15. keep an eye on this one. man found in burning truck in mcallen texas.Investigators believe the man was murdered before the truck was set on fire. the man appeared to have been assaulted before he was killed, Rodriguez said.
    this has many of the earmarks of a cartel style killing. and all of about 12 miles from the mexican border.

They are able to roll into a town and slaughter 400 people and no one finds out. That's power and it's clear they have it so I dont understand how they are unable to 'escape' from these prisons.

  20. Really? How dare they complain of anything, they're still alive and kickin...unlike their victims!.These scum bags think they deserve anything proper or descent from a punishment, shows what type of mentality they have. they are too good for that bad treatment, unlike what they dished out on the streets!

  32. They should throw EPN in there too along with the entire PRI cartel so they could join them in their hunger strike, i bet you all those mafia pigs could not go a single day without eating, and i mean eating fine food and drinking good expensive wine, even in jail they would given the rampant corruption in mexican jails, this while the great mayority of mexicans continue living in poverty.

  35. The hunger strike is probably because their chef had to take a few days off and Chapo and Barbie didn't want to try prison food.

  41. Why they only worry about civil rights when they are in prison? Hopefully your family members can enjoy the money you left behind because in solitary you only have time to think. Remember you might even get transfer to American custody. In the US they only logged that you refuse to eat and take away the food you can buy in commissary. Sucks to be you right at this moment.

  53. If Chapo can communicate with La Barbie it seems possible that he can get word to people on the outside through other inmates (along with other methods). After his previous arrest Chapo made a request to be moved to a less strict prison and he got moved to Puente Grande (the prison he made his own and escaped from). This could be a similar action however there is no way he is being moved unless it is across the border. One thing is for sure Chapo still has influence.

    --municipal police and authorities, and pena nieto's boyfriend bertie boy moreira, governor at the time, were there covering up for the zetas, who also had the military zone commanders and tropa hidding under their beds.
