Here we go again...Smurf and Viagras

Chivís Martínez for Borderland Beat
It would be amusing, if not for that fact it is so frustrating, a months old photo that we have published 3 times on BB is now newly discovered by Mexican media.  

Reforma published an article today, with the photo of  Estanislao Beltran,  aka Papa Smurf  (above)and Nicholas Sierra Santana, aka "Nico" or "El Gordo" one of the brothers who formed the Los Viagras cartel.

Reforma, along with others that form the Mexican media are reporting, "social networks are showing a video that shows links with El Gordo, of the Viagras cartel".

Even huge supporters of Mireles and Autodefensas such as Grillonautas, are reacting as though this is "news".  I am left with the impression, unless news falls in the lap of the media through social media, it will not have a chance in hell of  being exposed. 

Incredible.

What appears to be clear is, that only recently has  the media become interested, in what has transpired with Castillo and his thugs,  and about  those who lead and those who are members of "Rurales".

Clearly, they are not conducting simple investigation to find the pieces to splice together to create the big picture. If they would backtrack to Dr. Mireles' plane crash, and go forward it becomes crystal clear.  They will see it.

It was  during his convalescence, Smurf, his escort and friend,  threw  Mireles  under the bus, as he muscled into lead position, without a vote.

Then enters EPN, unlawfully creating the position of  "Commission for Security and Integral Development of Michoacán". Of which  no other state has, and in order to lawfully install the new position of authority, it  must be approved by congressional vote.  Alfredo Castillo, was appointed, without vote.
This was the last meeting that Dr. Mireles was privy to- you can see the concern on his face
Castillo had become frustrated that Dr. Mireles did not want to play ball,  in the type of game that Castillo had in mind........enter Smurf.  Smurf's sister was married to Chango Mendez, leader of La Familia Michoacana.  They had a son together.

When Mireles returned to Michoacán, forgoing the weeks of therapy remaining, Smurf must have been stunned at the warm, and supporting welcome Doc received upon his return.  Mireles was quickly reinstated into his former position.   

That is when Castillo made his move.  He began conducting meetings, with Americano, El Cinco, and Smurf.  Secret meetings.  Decision making meetings.  All contrary to the bylaws of CAM.  All without the leader of CAM.

The plan was placed into action,   tactics to disparage Mireles were not successful,  such as saying "he is now mentally unbalanced because of the accident and can't be a part of the group, he needed medical intervention.  They went as far as to take Mireles against his will to a mental health  facility for "evaluation" as to establish a record of  his being in such a facility.

The set up the pivotal point, which happened on April 27th in Caleta.  To read about that incident, please us this link.  

The link will also have the full two page document, back story details and familiar photos, the Americano photo, and El Gordo photo.

During the aftermath of the Caleta shootout, Mireles was a couple hrs away in a meeting with  hundreds of people.  He eventually arrived at the scene.  When he did the investigator asked Dr Mireles to help hold a corpse upright for "an identification photo" for the medical examiner. In retrospect this was part of the set up, because there were 3 persons there from the medical examinors office, but rather than asking one of them, the man ask Doc for help.  And he did so, after climbing an incline to get to the body.

The following day Castillo told the press "In the Caleta incident, Mireles took a "trophy photo" of a corpse,  "holding the head"  and "posing" with it"

The media went wild with the story.

I immediately texted Dr. Mireles asking about it.  He explained what happened. He sent me a foto depicting the inspector from the medical examiners office (wearing gloves) with  himself, as they held the torso and head upright for the photo.  He sent me the photo which I immediately posted on BB.

A day or two later it was published in the media.

We first published the Gordo/Smurf photo  it in May, and lastly on the July 28th post.  Initially I did so because of  the   document of the May 7th simply titled 'Comunicado'.  The document was to oust Dr. Mireles from his position of general coordinator and leader of Michoacán's Autodefensa Union known as CAM.  Doc Mireles says it was a creation of Castillo. 

Aside for having only a dozen valid signatures, the document reveals the name "Nicolas Sierra Santana, who I knew as one of the Viagras.  On the document, I used an arrow to draw attention to the document and type "Viagras".  See below, although I have now cropped it for clarity, please click on image to enlarge.

In the Reforma article it states, that the Viagras cartel originated in Buenavista, that is incorrect, it began in Huetamo.  Buenavista factors in with Simon El Americano.  He founded the autodefensas group of H3 in Buenavista under the direction of Viagras.  The Buenavista mayor,  Osbaldo Esquivel Lucatero, wanted to form an autodefensa group, Viagras did not want one in Buenavista, eventually they installed Americano as leader of H3, which has always been controlled by Viagras.

When Americano was called in to give a statement to authorities in Michoacán, the writing was on the wall.  I predicted they would say it was not him, but I had given a 50-50 hope they would conduct a deeper investigation than just the photo,  I was under the impression the federal agency of PGR would investigate.  They did not. 

Another song, another dance, by the corrupt state officials of Michoacán, Americano went in, said "not me, Tuta who?" and was let go. A polygraph would have been a very useful tool.

All is not lost, the photo sparked media interest, evident by this Smurf photo.  The hope is they will dig deeper, if they do they won't have to go far.  

If they have the interest. (click any image to enlarge)
Gordo is not happy with the complaints of the La Mira residents
Update: Smurf has spoken about the controversy, and speaks glowingly about the Viagras....

Gordo of Viagras is on your side???
Nico has always been with us, Nican and other have been by our side, if they have done something wrong go to the authorities. We are open to scrutiny, but you guys don't know who they are, they(Viagras) are people who joined us in the fight and that live in the municipality of Buenavista Tomatlan, when the fighting started they were there present and are still in hills of Tierra Caliente, they(Viagras) are in charge of Huetamo,(where they are from) by Villa Madero, around Sahuayo they patrol also. I would like to ask legislators to do something about social-media and the way they confuse people about what really is going on with the movement.


Below is the video I saw in May, it is the full version:

I created a this screen shot and posted it as well

  1. Here's the deal, if you havn't figured it out. Castillo knew he had installed criminals in the RURALES, & his sole purpose was to crush the legitimacy of and image of the AD. If the media finds out AMERICANO & Smurf are bad, believe me that's what the media wants. They don't want the rest of MEXICO to feel like it's possible to fight the cartels. They want them to believe that the whole movement was sponsored by the CJNG just like TUTA had stated from the very beginning. Now what do we have here, all the links to MENCHO & his CJNG. Now it will definitely look like the AD movement was created by CJNG to install the new cartel. Castillos probelm has and continues to be MIRELES. If it wasn't for him, then standing from the outside looking in, us, the people that aren't physically there in Michoacan it would appear as if there was no legit movement from the start. They want us to know that SMURF & Americano are corrupt.

    7. Mexico is being overrun and flooded by US criminals and drug traffickers, their earnings after all the sicarios, military, politicians and partners inmexico have been paid are reported to be around 90% of all the money, all of it goes.clear to money laundering to reinvest in legal businesses. That is why latin american countries that produce drugs or traffic them are poor, broke, bankrupt and in "debt", that is all puro teatro, as a wise man said recently...

  3. The video is a trip you see the old bastard and the Fat man arguing with the citizens. Then they begin to take pics and video of the out spoken citizens I can only imagine why. Doesn't the military have a hit squad that can take out all these assholes. Castillo is lucky he caught the Mano con ojos before he had time to kill him. He told it to his face in the pgr interview I bet he shit his pants.

El compayito fucked up, he tought he had paid the bitch and that the bitch was bought, wroong mistake, el compayito should have killed the bitch the moment she took the money from him, castillo de cagada is worse than la mano con ojos could ever be, and all the mexican narcs that allowed the mexican government officials to extort them should have killed them instead, there is still time, let's release la mano con ojos if he helps, and let's remember that miguel angel gallegos godoy has always been el traficante mas poderoso de tierra caliente, accused of paying the CIA for his plaza, before el mencho even knew where his ass was...

  7. You are now looking at the new secret cartel being setup by la Tuta. It's coming to light that people like Smurf, americano and other friends are creating auto defensa to promote a new Cartel funded by la tuta who has not been captured cuz he was smart putting up his friends to run a false defense group.

    ReplyDelete
  8. you are right about that! That is the only state I have fear of visiting. Actually I have not complained that the photo that broke the story was my screen shot or that they cropped the Borderland Beat from it, because it is best we are not pointed out.

    BTW I think I will put up the original video, it is better quality, from May, it is one of three. People really gave Smurf shit, yelling at him, saying he was in it for the money etc. Lost in all this is the guy who made the video.

    no one is giving him credit. it is sad because he has produced dozens of videos. my screenshot was important because people will look at a photo especially with red arrows and text, but HE posted the video. He exposes so much. when I post the video I will give the link to his channel.

  9. Tuta and Dr. M should make an Alliance like the cartels.

    ReplyDelete
  10. I think Tuta & Mireles should team up dispose of Castillo & his trash....both men are genius in their own way...Mireles is a brave freedom fighter, a modern day Dr.Martin Luther King Jr....and Tuta whether you love him or hate him, is one of the smartest narco bosses around...the man is obviously doing something right cuz he's one of the last narco bosses left standing & hasn't been captured or killed...he seems to always be one step ahead of the curve......both men have strong influence & share a common enemy: Castillo....Tuta/Mireles would be an amazing alliance if you really think about it...justsayin'

  11. Chivas, without you, and the BB reporters, we in the U.S./Mexico/World would still be groping in the dark. This report is terrific. It's concise and clear and with facts! I hope some of the independent media groupe out there will take notice of BB and award BB for its outstanding coverage of the "War" in Mexico. You and BB are an exemplary group of investigative reporters.

    This report gives example after example of the EPN's guard dogs, Castillo and Chong's outrages and incompetence. Even crimes against the people of Tierra Caliente. This is the PRI's testing ground to bring back their traditional tactics of beatings, bribes, jailings and murders against any popular resistance, on a national scale.

    Thank You Again, Chivas


    Peace,

    Not all of them. But one should still respect another countries borders. Yes, I understand the United States put out the carrot and allowed it. Mexico should be making it better so it's people will stay. They should provide more education and better pay. I came to Mexico with an education and make a lot of money here. I did not come with a lot either. It is interesting that many of them say they are in the USA because it is too dangerous in Mexico. Amazing how many will not set foot back into Mexico and have not done so for years, as they are afraid to do so. Even to visit family. When I cross the border and I am in El Paso they say that it is too dangerous to live in Mexico most of the time.

  21. From reading this article I get the impression someone or several people are trying very hard to implicate Dr. Mireles with a criminal act in order to put him away behind bars which is what has been done already through false charges and accusations. I WOULDN'T DOUBT IF THIS SAME PERSON OR PERSONS HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE AIRPLANE "ACCIDENT" Perhaps someone should look into this as well being that it has already been very conveniently tucked away under the rugs
