Son of 'El Chango Méndez' Captured In Apatzingán




Translated by Valor for Borderland Beat
Morelia, Michoacán— Jesús Méndez also known as El Chuchín, son of El Chango Méndez, is one of the 44 arrested in Apatzingán from the shootout that occurred on January 6, because of the removal of the mayor, which left nine dead.  During the investigations carried out by the Mexican Army to confirm the identities of those involved, they identified someone who had identified himself as Juan Mendoza Rosales; discovering that it was one of the sons of El Chango Méndez, founder of La Familia Michoacana.


When questioned by federal forces, the son of El Chango Méndez accepted that he was the son of the founder of La Familia Michoacana.  The son was arrested within the vicinity of the City Hall of Apatzingán.

It is worth noting that last May, a photo was circulating where El Chuchín appeared, along with Nicolás Sierra Santana, leader of the cartel of Los Viagras.  While the other son of El Chango Méndez, Eduardo Méndez, appears in another photo sitting on a couch after the “autodefensas” secured the house of El Tucán, a leader of the Caballeros Templarios.  It is also worth noting that El Chango Méndez is a compadre of El Mencho, founder and leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, which operates in Jalisco.

    3. It can mean compadre as in drinking buddies, or compadre as in baptizing his child.

    4. It could also mean.. that one of their family member (daughter or son) is with the other persons daughter or son. (married, engaged, etc..) "knowing each others family" ...or sometimes compas because they 'work in the same criminal group' and know 'each other'.

      The other one is compa as in 'pal type' or drinking buddies.
      But the authentic one. Is babtizing some ones child.

    5. As always in mxico families of criminals tying the nots together to make bigger crime families/bigger cartels. In this case appears like La Familia Michoacana, CJNG, Viagras are all in the mix... malditas rratas.

    6. Maybe they meant to say they are CoMadres

  2. We see lots of articles about how they capture narcos. But do they ever actually convict them? Or do they just let them go?

    2. Depends on whose payroll?

  3. El Chango is godfather to one of the Sierra Santana brothers

    ReplyDelete
  4. That would depend on how much money the people arrested have.

  5. Chango mendez is not compadre of mencho . Mencho wanted him dead , mencho was part of milenio cartel when chango mendez and chayo la familia michoacana kicked them out the michoacan , when milenio cartel olso known back then as the valencia cartel broke up mencho and los cunis from apatzingan formed cjng .

    1. Just my opinion anybody correct me if I'm wrong but the Mexican federal government likes to work with cartels from every region, and guys like Tuta are their local leader that they seem to be working with!

    2. La Tuta did say he was making a comeback and that's why the videos are silent.Tuta got a 2nd wind.

  7. Out of the last 8 articles 7 have been about michoacan. I think there is 30 something more states to post about. I knew that after Chivis left things were gonna get bad,but not this bad. Come on BB step it up. Or you guys are gonna have to change your name to reporting on the mexican state of michoacan,not the entire mexican drug war.Actually michoacan isnt even on the top 5 most important states when it comes to drug trafficking.

    1. @2:39 how about YOU find a way to include all 31 ''more or less states'' on one or more reports? make it a federal reporting on the federal causes of crime on a national level, with national level solutions and national level leadership...

      Delete
    2. Don't be a hatter, if borderland is making articles of michoacan it's because it's a war zone over there at this time. Open your mind and start reading what the articles actually say instead of waiting for a stupid narco that your in love with's picture because of his fake corridos. Michoacan is a defenetly in the top 3 for drug trafiking that's why there is so much articles of them and so much violence in that region. It's a fact. Nothing to brag about, just reality real

    3. 2:39 is just Castillo trying to distract attention!

    4. ok...please give it a chance. I think preconcieved notions come true because we are looking for anything that supports that opinion.

      My life now has hours away from BB! I am still here for about 60-90 min per day. I feed stories to reporters, also videos, info sent to me, images and help with editing the posts and translations. 2 of our reporters do not speak Spanish but i think are doing a good job.

      Our views took a huge dive when I left. down to around 25-30% of normal and comments also. I was very concerned, but I knew we had a good team. One of the reporters, and I have a close relationship, I called on him to help out temporarily. I don't think he will be able to stay but I am hoping.

      Our numbers are increasing back to where it was! we are at about 75% of where we were and comments are coming in almost the same as before.

      Change is difficult, but often it is a different "awesome", if given a chance. I could no longer do it alone and have a life, and that is the truth. I will travel to southern states and plan a new project with normalistas of GRO, JalMich and Coahuila. probably scholarships. That will take time and my feet on the ground. Luckily I am in with the zapatistas and have built schools for them for several years, so I am sure the normalistas will welcome me.

      in closing, Spike ...now named otis, is in the UK he is fluent in spanish but some of his words are translated to UK english not US english. I edit his posts a bit but some words or expressions may slip through, please just be grateful we have an enthusiastic person who is a quick translator and willing to give us 2 posts per day, and concentrate on that.

      Paz

    5. UK English is charming with a clever hint of sarcasm.Once you guys get used to it you will love it even better than US English;after all it is the mother country.

      Delete
    6. There was zero sarcasm, why would you take it as such?
      UK ENglish and US English are 2 of 13 english language categories
      Some vary more than others but in translations from a person in the UK, a few of the words will be different or used differently.

      It was a sincere comment, no sarcasm,

      Delete
    7. O I didn't mean the reporter was sarcastic I was just generalizing on the UK people I know and their humour.

  8. Where is Papa Pitufo? Is that the last known picture of him, it seems like he is the smart one from mireles n mora. He went silent through all the mess at Michoacan

    1. His low key, I think he wants it that way. Pitufo is also related to el chango Mendes . Wouldn't surprise me if he was running the fake auto defenzas. Fuck all those fake A.D.' s

  9. Most BB readers and Mexican citizens look at Dr Mireles, and Hipolito Mora favorably including myself, but I find it hard to believe that before they got betrayed, they didn't know guys like Papa Pitufo, El Americano, Viagras, and a large percentage of the AD was not highly involved with organized crime! I don't think Tuta is any good for Michoacan , but he did mention that the AD was make up of EX Templarios, and other cartels banding together! On that not I still believe that Dr Miele and Hip olio Mora will be the guys eventually to bring to change to not just Michoacan, but all of Mexico!!! THE CROOKED POLITICIANS ARE SHITTING

    1. I was literally just thinking about Tuta always claiming the autodefensas were made up of crooks. He was partially right. Of course some people joined with their own interest but the will of the people to fight was genuine. Castillo just knows how to make the AD movement crumble and anybody with 2 cents in their head knows that was his intention.

  10. Oh I forgot they are SHITTING BRICKS!!! NERVOUS IN HELL BECAUSE THIS TIME THEY ARE THEO CLOSEST TO GOING DOWN SINCE 1910!!! YIKES!!!!!

  11. Of course he is quiet! You hit the nail on the head! He is the right hand man of Castillo all along, just the kind of criminal Castillo uses as a puppet!

  14. These guys go back to when they were kids they all know each other. Those that were just a little more fortunate went to primary school together. Back in the 90's many were in Redwood City, San Jose are of California. That such and such is compadre with this guy. All that back and forth is never ending. Some are related by blood others by marriage. Mencho's Family has been situated en la Region de Apatzingan for more than a century and they have always been cold blooded killers, since way before these war cartel wars started.
